Chorus /
in vain I will away is a project that works with the
body in unconventional ways, distilling a single heap of body, stripped of
the privilege of identity, into dark spaces; exploring the
representation of violence, fear and the unknown; influenced by Dante's
Divine Comedy, Butoh, Mythology and Folk Tales, a range of classical
painting traditions, contemporaries like Giorgio Agamben, foreign
correspondents and the timeless notion of Homo Sacer.
Three full size prints of this project were exhibited at the ICA in London, February 2011
The entire project traveled to Athens to be exhibited at the Benaki Museum in Autumn 2010 The exhibition was developed by Sozita Goudouna under the title 'Locus Solus' based on a text by Raymond Roussel.
