Frank Wasser b. 1988
PROLAPSE 2022
Performance/Photography on Dibond, 23 2/8" x 33 1/8", signed verso.
Provenance:
This work featured in the exhibition 'Speech Sounds' at VISUAL (Carlow) in August 2022. The work was awarded the Carlow arts festival ARTWORKS award. This is a self-portrait of the artist with a prolapsed stoma. The photograph was taken during a stay of 5 months at Kings College Hospital (London) during a period of severe chronic illness. The work was made with the assistance of Anna Nolda Nagele. The artist could not walk or eat at the time of making the work. The image was made as part of a body of work which partially responds to the aestheticization of chronically sick and disabled bodies that often involves a problematic hiding, concealing and representation of bodies
Exhibited: VISUAL (Carlow) Catalyst Arts (Belfast) University of Oxford (Oxford).
