Dissecting Set (Hers), 2000
Kitchen, surgical and post mortem equipment, fabric
80cm x 150cm x 10cm
'Dissecting Set (Her)' is part of the 'Emancipation' series. Based around the idea that the majority of acts of violence and murder occur in the home, usually by someone the victim knows and loves.
Objects usually associated with domesticity are presented in an altogether more sinister guise. 'Dissecting Set (Her)' features a mixture of kitchen equipment, medical and post mortem equipment (bone nibblers), all of which blend into a similar aesthetic and are presented in a tool wrap made from a gingham tablecloth.
The 'Emancipation Series' was first exhibited in '7OVER5 New Contemporary Art' at Leeds Metropolitan University Gallery in 2000.
