Pushing Through a Brick Wall, Documented performance: Springfield Road, Belfast and Colin Glen, 2019
Pushing Through a Brick Wall is a soft manifesto. The performance borrows visual language from domestic craft and textiles to subvert and dismantle structures, physical and ideological, that seek to divide. The works fall into the genre of ‘counter-monument’ by creating ephemera from actions that challenge how collective events are remembered and memorialized. Brick walls and monuments shift from permanent to permeable when transferred to linen.
