Description Versions of Truth draws on verbatim theatre and live art practices to explore identity, performance, authenticity and representation. Partly based on a shocking and personal real-life story, which is never publicly revealed, artist Tristan Meecham is interested in our relationship to truth and its mercurial nature. Set in an acting audition, Versions of Truth plays with the ethics and role of the actor, as the audition quickly travels down a rabbit hole of deceit.

Further Information This second creative development extends the artist'™s practice in an exciting new direction, from the large-scale participatory art works he is known for, to a more intimate experience that sits within the current wave of performance artists who use themselves as a comic foil to explore uncomfortable and challenging subject matter.
