About the Artwork

Meetings is a memento of overwhelming in a hostile, domestic setting. I imagined a pair of hands grasping my body and lifting me away from a meeting set at a table. It felt as though my body had disappeared from my body, there is a sense of disruption in a familial setting. The disharmony, fragmentation and disjuncture is highlighted by the raw and jagged finished of the ceramic and fragmented body parts. Lacan interpreted the image of the fragmented body ‘[manifesting] itself in dreams when the movement of the analysis encounters a certain level of aggressive disintegration in the individual.’
