Melancholy of the self, 2022
Silicone, custom dye, steel, copper. 43in x 11in. x 3/4in.(110cm x 28cm. x 2cm)
An ongoing project that looks at the entanglement of agency, loss and melancholy. Steel and silicone works play on constructed schemas of artificial bodies, modes of replication, simulation, substitution and mimesis to reveal anxieties of the contemporary apparatus where the history of industrialization, notions of a body and dislocated intimacies are compressed into singular objects.
