Womb 2013 Video, paint peelings on mechanical form 0:57 Womb answers the viewer’s desire for these paint creations to move. Though, attached to a canvas by a long umbilical cord, Womb rests apart, its sides literally moving as it inhales and exhales. Its breaths are slow as it struggles to achieve life. The colours of its peels as well as that of the canvas evoke associations with the placenta and the dark warmth of the womb where life is woven into being. We may feel threatened by the uncanny movement of this alien thing but for the fact that it sits vulnerably at our feet. |
