Let Me Tell You About This Shoe

Performance at GAK (Gesellschaft für Aktuelle Kunst) in Bremen, Germany

23 January 2024

Taking the form of a day-hired Health & Safety instructor, Let Me Tell You About This Shoe positions the presentation of artistic research and work as gift-giving, using humour as a vehicle to recall, reiterate, and propose modes of artistic, learning, and citation practices that challenge the illusion of an untethered individual, enforced by neoliberal mantras for independent labour and success with an origin in colonial exploitation and societal oppression.

You can read that manifesto handout as it was provided to the audience here,
and see the "new money" gifted to the audience, which is an (attempted) full list of financial acknowledgements and linages for the making of this sculpture and performance work here.
