Katherine Gu

3rd project for 1B.
Performance piece done in collaboration w/ Hakon Bachman and Joel Youkhanna.
Done in disguise of a critique.
I was up first and presented the statue, which was store-bought from TJ Maxx but covered with clay so i can claim that I made it.
Second up was Hakon, who drew in with paint onto the statue and “ruined” it.
3rd up, Joel took the statues and smashed it on the ground followed with some hits from a hammer.
Overall the critique was about appropriation of other artists piece.
Winter 2009.
