‘DEGRADABLE’: 2017.
Medium: Remnants of a performative act.
Dimensions: 2 x A4 Photographic Posters, 2 x A4 Acrylic card holders, Rubble (Residue from the performance as an offering).
Break the restrictions of preconceptions and share as a freedom of expression.
There are traditions/garments that originally had an application that linger in present contemporary culture, existing displaced from their purpose and proposed now as an almost ritual act of defining the individual as unique.
Some of these preconceptions have become restrictions.
‘Degradable’ is about chipping away at this repression through the creation of body attachment to the face, made from materials that degrade with use. The materials act as a medium which produce an image.
Rubble from the event is now offered to you as a gift from the performative act.
