(Via Freakley.)
The Relationship Contracts (well, the two I’ve seen) are beautiful.
(If these existed outside the realm of Art, they’d make life a lot simpler. But much less interesting..)
Audio interview, mostly about the Ideas Catalogue.
From statement:
Through my work I aim to address common personal, social, and artistic problems. My source material originates in the overlapping codes of behaviour in social, professional and legal interactions and transactions. Departing from flawed givens, misleading texts, and habitual human behaviours, I attempt to locate alternatives, however absurd.
…While my works are mainly text-based, they often expand to incorporate their contexts in performative or sculptural ways…
My central interests lie in a desire to affect and redirect our social imaginary, which disciplines the way in which we lead our lives. I intend to communicate the purpose of my works to individuals rather than masses, broadening and diversifying the way in which their social imaginary functions, and in turn affecting the way in which they think and behave. This public outlook makes for artworks which are frank, moralising, social, and instructional.
