‘Hide me, Steal Me, Be Nice to Me’
Group exhibition curated by Diana Ali at ARTE.M, Funchal, Madeira, Portugal.
Installation of Heads of state / maps people confetti
Over one hundred confetti people laser cut and repurposed from photographic head of state stamps and photographs of old maps, each measuring c 1.4cm in height, will be set adrift on the gallery floor so they can ride the vectors of the space.
This is a terrestrial mobile art work that is designed to be hardly seen and to migrate across a given arena. The crowd move in response to low level air currents and the interaction of visitors through the gallery space.
With a freedom to roam, sometimes disappearing, other times re appearing in unexpected corners, this group of individuals take on a life of their own, once installed. Only found by keen eyed visitors, they reside at the margins of visibility.
