Description
This practice-led research project explores and expresses my disillusionment with the dysfunctions of the political establishment in Australia. This is achieved by reframing the visual elements of political spectacle through the installation of video, audio and sculpture, deployed in public and gallery settings. The research is enacted through a Rancièrian lens and uses a practice-led methodology, deploying the Situationist method of détournement to de-stabilise points of symbolic reference appropriated from Australian politics.
