Monday, June 4th, 2007The Specimens from Local Ephemera
Red Room Limbo
In 2001, I started physically mapping out a psychological landscape that originated in my then red wall bedroom. The word ‘mapping’ is essential here because subconsciously, I began to chart a course to Local Ephemera.
Local Ephemera is the world of in-between. It is a liminal terrain governed by the sensual and the intuitive where concepts, ideas, inferences and innuendoes (ecological, economical, political and art /historical) take on physical form and are constantly in flux. Things seem to be constantly shifting – displacing, evolving - replacing, oozing – relocating.
The residents of L.E. are a peculiar amalgam of contemporary and historical artifacts from our world that when annexed together seem to create a revolving commentary on our social dynamics.
