A
History of Touch
This body of work assembles a collection of new object
based installation and sculpture that questions the presumptuous act of knowing
through internalisation. By placing objects to be seen I proscribe to aggravate
logic in the reading and propose equalised values of just how do we generate
meaning?
By reducing thinking to be stabilised in a physical space
with objects, I compress intersubjectivity by initiating a version of
completeness. This is preserved by separation within exit points of making.
What do these objects continue to mean? This is a question I will never stop
asking as this is when a transference takes place.
This exhibition formalises a metaphysical approach by
turning objects into thought and vice-versa. A confession of experience retold
in a broken miss-spelt anthology of objects.
