Portfolio > The Sphere, the Flesh and the Machine

The machine cogs are made of plywood and warp and shift with the humidity in the exhibition space. This has added an element of spontaneity and frustration as the cogs connect and disconnect from one another. The sound of the wooden cogs clattering together is a constant accompaniment to the work, intensified in the moments that more of the cogs connect and turn. This imperfect motion is a happy accident fitting to the themes of the work; silencing, censoring women and societal disfunction or the weaponization of nostalgia.
