Dylan Ricards
Installation On-site June 3rd:
Future Fetish
ARTIST STATEMENT
I have a friend who schedules an hour in their day, every day around 5, to cuddle with their cat. They don't take calls, or do phone shit, or anything else. It's a ritual.
DESCRIPTION
A plastiglomerate boulder is counterweighted with a television, tyed in shibari knots, playing video content. Power is needed for the television and media. I'd love to suspend the counterweighted objects from an existing overhang as a way to to tie the work into the site. If this is not possible, I can provide an armature.
