OLD  MATE BED

let’s address the elephant, i mean, the bed in the room.

I know I know I know I know that I can’t have a messy bed in my installation without talking about Tracey Emin, so lets go there for a second.

very very sincere, irony free zone. no mystery.

you can touch it, its an alchemy, a transition of substances. you can still smell it.

mental health - depression. not eating just drinking. nihilism. repulsion. ugly.

death bed.

My bed is not a stagnant frozen moment of time but an object that goes in out of action / use. sometimes i nap on there. read, read my phone etc. i project onto it, moments of past and present. its a small bed, not a double bed. its for kids. I’ve never had sex in it. i’ve probably never even been properly depressed in it. i’m holding onto my youth here.. or trying to? my pre-pubescent bed.
