| Summary: | I think holding you near the kitchen light wouldn’t be so bad is an exploration of how signs of human intimacy can be visually located in object language. Through quiet searches of love within object to object relations, romantic ‘sculptures’ are identified within everyday spaces and close readings of the inanimate are formed. This work posits how objects, when recontextualised and stripped of their technical functions, could potentially inhabit signs of human likeness, and as a result represent a desire for a radical, liberated model of love in how they relate to one another. |
