With all the woosh of commerce in the air, with all the wants and gets of the art fairs, this work remembers something necessary about making and viewing art. It shows something needed that doesn’t immediately have anything to do with an object being bought and sold, while having everything to do with consumption—eating, wanting, having. The market is turned back to its seething states of desire and demand: consumption returns to the body. What do I want? Why do I need to have it? __ Image: Still Image from: santoni kina. ‘maybe now i won’t be so hungry (chewed clay)’ . 25lbs of Dark Horse LC 5, my mouth. performed november 30th 2024. video duration - 00:06:36. {Image and screened Video courtesy of the artist.} ____________________
