Through a series of conversations involving the acts of eating and cleaning, we explore actions, reactions and consequences. With undertones of sexuality and the human form, loss of control and the struggle to regain it, we probe whether the marks that actions in life leave on us can ever be erased.

Developed as a collaboration between artists Miriam Kilpatrick and Paolo Fiorentini, using performance, video and photos with the potential for it to evolve into performance installation. Performed by Ray and Miriam.

 

 

In her series The Cat Ladies, Kirsty McKenzie creates paradoxical images
of beauty and awkwardness, social and antisocial themes. She explores
lesbian relationships versus the solitary nature of cats, using the
technique of partially blind contour drawings and paintings, to create
distortions and tension.
