REFLECTION

INSTALLATION

'Reflection' focuses on objects (car parts) that exist intimately in moment of stillness and meditative moments, which puts the objects in a reflective mode mirroring collection of memories. The works were installed at the slave auction hall at James fort prison. The installation adapted the idea and history of how slaves were chained from the ground and sold to the slave masters at the auction hall to deny their rights to freedom. The work adapted the idea of chaining by hanging the objects that can't move on the ceiling against object that revolve meditatively by themselves on a pedestal under the hanging object, reflecting the stage where the objects was functioning (liberated) in vehicles against the stage where the objects was regarded disused (enslaved) and abandoned. The exhibition also comprise of found disused car LIght case which were operated to function and reflect light on the objects. The exhibition welcomes the audience into a backdrop of geometrically arranged dirty fabrics.
