The
folds of leathery
skin are lifted and propped open by sculptures, casts and found objects to reveal collages
of a multitude
of images from a broad range
of sources: André Masson's Acéphale illustration depicts a headless monster, functioning as a parodic diagram
of the ideas
of the Surrealist philosopher Georges Bataille; Krang, the villain from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, is an anthropomorphic brain housed in the torso
of a human -
shaped exo - suit; the cryogenically - frozen body
of John Spartan from the film, Demolition Man; and a snapshot
of the artist's mother, apparently perturbed by a «virtual autopsy display»
of a mummy in the British Museum.
