ECT

white cane garden where shadow marks movement / where water upsets tongued-up walls in the mouth / a man in forward kiss  / to mack the knife and tongue where water is /  the light of going out / a light going out / electricity turns the thought.

FOUCAULT/LAS MENINAS

 

 

 


__

ECT is an exploration of fragmentary memory loss and paradigmatic image associations that accompany electroshock therapy.

FOUCAULT/LAS MENINAS is a response to Foucault's essay on the seminal painting "Las Meninas" by Velasquez. The piece attempts to conceptually reconstruct the painting while focusing on Foucault's dissemination of the extraordinary ricochet of gaze between canvas surface/viewer/painted subject.
