Enemies Within #1
Work ID: 405
Description: From 'Enemies Within' series.
Enemies Within intentionally manipulates information by shifting contexts and repositioning scientific imagery in a provocative manner. Working from the Muybridge studies on locomotion-gestures poses are selected for their emotive possibilities. Each gesture is then positioned against medical photo-representation of human anatomy (the essential materiality of humankind). The resulting "synthesis of data" represents the kinds of distortion which effect all truths - whatever the original intent --whatever the information.
Originally commissioned for the Tallinn Art Hall (Tallinn, Estonia) Enemies Within takes the form of twelve large "alter-pieces". Anu Liivak, curator of that exhibition, felt that the notions that informed this work were extremely pertinent to Estonia. Like much of the Western world, the Baltic nations have been undergoing a period of extraordinary transition and have been looking for structures and systems to accommodate their needs. In the process, culture, commerce, and politics are subjected to stresses and strains at all levels. Daily economic, social and psychological chaos are the rule rather than the exception. As a result both the social and the material body suffer and truth becomes a tenuous construct in daily life.
