Ghost Potential, 2017, ceramics 150 kilos, various sizes, Calais, France.
This sculptural, sonic and performative work addresses the lethal nature of ghost-nets in the ocean (nets discarded by the fishing industry that capture sea life) and the entanglement of refugees caught in geo-political networks and institutions.
This piece, performed on the coast of Calais, France (a site of the former Calais Jungle refugee camp) to mirror the current issues facing refugee's on Manus Island. 150 kilos of ceramic rings lay tangled on the artists body as she also comes to terms with her own history as a descendant of economic refugees.
