Tributary Projects group exhibition
Busted, 2020, CMYK screen prints on academia paper, A4
The premise of Busted aims to discuss the interconnected aspects of shame and guilt based around pornography and it’s connection with distorted perspectives on queer culture. Communicated through a series of experimental CMYK screen prints, the 70’s and 80’s magazine covers are displayed indiscreetly on the wall. As if they were evidence for some kind of clinical exposé. A ‘caught in the act’ dialogue that many queer individuals experience in their early days of sexual exploration or development. With inverted colours and bright contrasting neon-like tones, this series aims to celebrate these ideas around sexuality, fantasy, desire and lust.
Six of the prints from the series were displayed as a part of the ‘Reading Between the Lines’ group show at Tributary Projects at Gorman House in Canberra.
