Jenny Williamson - Warsophy - 2000 France National Foundation for Contemporary Culture, Paris, France Jenny Williamson physically engages the surface of all the abstract works. The title of the project captures the described image and concept; the artist places provocative and beautifully rendered objects such as syringes and vibrators. The vibrators may cover several references to connected meanings, events, experiences, but the correlation of the whole group of dirty socks generates the actual inter-relation of fragmented realities; this consciousness prompts the artists to deal with the political, the geographical, and the everyday in a non-didactic way. This art immerses viewers into the magic by which paint transforms itself into things being described and back again, the statement remains obscure until the juxtaposition of all art works in a continuous collective revelation process; there is a naturalistic quality of light that creates an immediate connection to this as a world we know but yet have never experienced before. While the work documents a personal approach to investigating questions about sex taboos and media and communications; Jenny Williamson's work confronts the spectator, while distancing him/her from their intense experience. |
