Channing Tatum is the collaboration of Rohanne Udall (b. 1990) and Paul Hughes (b. 1991). Trained in fine art, philosophy, and dance, they undertake artistic, performance and curatorial projects. Their work is produced within and presented across stages, galleries, studios, universities and digital spaces. They are currently preoccupied with: emotion, gesture, hosting, idiocy, in/sincerity, institutions, materiality, peers, undercutting and critique.
- A mixed platter
- Do the obvious thing
- Get distracted
- Talk to everyone
- What are we already doing?
- What are we not doing?
- Just try it
- The jug is already doing its thing
- They already did something like that
- What if that’s enough?
