Object Lesson (Sicilian Dragon) Written by Mick Bighamian, Senior Master September 2007 (Played by Jennifer Acon and Mick Bighamian) Diana Thater
A single video monitor displays a recorded chess match between Jennifer Acon and Mick Bighamian, presenting the strategic Sicilian Dragon opening as documented by Senior Master Mick Bighamian in September 2007. Thater transforms the intimate documentation of a chess game into a meditative viewing experience, framing intellectual competition as a subject worthy of quiet, focused observation. The work reduces the complexity of the game to its essential recorded form, inviting viewers to engage with the unfolding logic of each move on a solitary screen.
