Slade School of Art Stairwell
Following the assimilating colours of a Hansel and Gretel trail to a hidden stairwell, an evolving organic and technological information system emerges, growing with and against architectural lines, shapes and surface. Drifting through the bacteria of the imagination, geography of labour and the daylight of data, shadows give pause to the internal piping, spillages of paint and creases of past movement. Steps of time cross the infamous red dot, the wooden library of language and colonised grids of windows. The unfolding story becomes disorientated in a graphical chaotic explosion; as hands walk the raised texture of aged ergonomic railings, shoes travel over escaping lines and the microbial circuit reforms into a rhythm of purple; from the apex an ominous drop downwards reveals a fissured base as the centerless swarm hovers in chapters of transition. Products of the oppressive transcend towards an ornate pattern of regeneration - an encrypted act of relabelling resisting to resolve into a whole.
'The cyborg is a cybernetic organism, a hybrid of machine and organism, a creature of social reality as well as a creature of fiction...Cyborg politics is a struggle for language and the struggle against perfect communication, against one code that translates all meaning perfectly....liberation rests on the construction of the consciousness, the imaginative apprehension, of oppression, and so of possibility' - Donna Haraway.
Haraway, D. (1991). Simians, cyborgs and women. London: Free Association Books.
The repetitive, meditative process of making parallels with the healing process of Aboriginal sandpainting; after a long duration of work and a limited viewing period, the piece was destroyed.
Space and form is experienced from the perspective of being inside and outside as the texture of contrary colours opens common dualistic thought across a surface of rock facets and scrunched paper shades.
