Whilst at OSE Roxman Gatt continued to work mainly with video, sound, painting and performance. After the first term (a curriculum devised by artist Matthew Darbyshire which culminated in a ‘total artwork’), Roxman developed a great interest in sculpture, an element which seemed to have been missing in the body of work.

Throughout the year, Roxman’s research was particularly looking at cars (specifically BMW E30) and the fetishisation of objects and brands in a consumer capitalist society. This research led to a project titled ‘Imhabba bl-addocc’ which entailed a sound piece, two video works as well as a performance which took place in a car park in Malta. The work was exhibited as an installation piece in OSE’s final year show ‘The Well’. Ideas / interests around loneliness and intimacies with inanimate objects, sexuality gender and consumption continue to heavily feature in Roxman’s work.

During term 2 and 3, the artist collaborated on a couple of projects, one of which was the devising of the public programme where alongside three other associates under the group name ‘Me Myself and I’, artists working with performance and sound were invited to talk about their practice as well as give workshops which were all open to the public. Roxman Gatt was also involved with an other project titled ‘Spelunking’ a collaboration with all of the associates, members of the public and artist Benedict Drew.
