I approach painting as a speculative technology, staging a reenactment of Western epistemology. Set on deconstructing normative apparatus of knowledge and power, my practice traverses painting, writing performance, and assemblage, in an attempt to circumnavigate a system of encyclopaedic choreography, and the conditions of labour through which it is performed.
