Large
prints showing blurry and indistinct silhouettes refer to the broad
mass of low-income employees, as well as to the unconscious and even
obsessive fear that the aspirational and governing classes have of
such people. Since the financial crisis of 2008, these damaged and
fatigued bodies have been starting to get out of control. The
instruments of domination of the last three decades are starting to
no longer function and these at one time subjugated and tamed social
classes are beginning to demonstrate their dissatisfaction. We have
entered a period of apprehension, paranoia and a compulsive need to
humiliate and dehumanise.
