Selectors' Comments:
Charlie Tweed gives new meaning to civil disobedience, full disclosure - and underground. His Man from Below TV is more like a message from the boy-child you hope will never grow up. He's too smart for his own good, but you know you'd never let him get away with his astutely, acutely damning enactments if you took him for an adult. Check out his graphic for the video Man from Below TV: a literal kid's rendition of his instructions for its display: '7 inch screen with live aerial extending as if live broadcast.'

Is funny. He lives on nothing much but the idea of rebellion, off grid, down below. The expanse at the edge of London. Near City Airport perhaps is the basecamp for his pioneering media and eco activism. The props are limited, the hole not big, but the encouragement is surely convincing. Everyone should do it now, go there, dig, rebel, and then pass it on.

Artist's Statement:
I work with a variety of alter egos to explore the mechanisms of power and control and the potential of the irrational. Man From Below TV is the first in a series of videos and performances where my alter ego attempts to create a safer life 'below the surface' of the Thames Gateway.
