Arms, Legs
Putting on paint overalls
Fingers tying shoelaces
Shoes once yellow, stained sticky
The wax manufacturing plant glooms with dissonder
Dissonder is a mixed-media installation centered around a wax factory, and one of its workers. Layer by layer, their body is repurposed for labour. Now, echoes of a factory continue to drive them. Factory waste is ever moving, as they are holding figures together from falling apart.
Recursion strikes an eerie likeness as it seeps memories into wax. As the individual becomes its surroundings, the world becomes dissonder.
