︎ Body De—

Body De- was a sharing of work developed during the Market Gallery Carers Studio Residency (January 25).

Body De- traces the undoing of the artist’s subjectivity alongside the changing state of her mother’s decomposing body. As the body transforms underground, so too does the living world. The artist’s dialogue with her mother traces spiritual questions, political reckonings, her relationship with grief, negotiations with timelessness and molecular processes of decay.

Utilising defunct and found materials, detritus, signifiers of memorial, tape loops and personal artefact, the installation materially explores multiple processes of de-composition.
