Muut tiedot
Simon Mullan's artistic practice revolves around youth culture, masculinity, and group identity in a globalised society. Through sculpture, installation, and performance, he employs everyday objects to explore how identity and ideology are shaped by aesthetics. His gaze is observational rather than judgmental, focusing on human behaviour in the liminal space between the social and the biological.
“As the world is globalised the local is polarised, tribes become increasingly based on ideology rather than ethnicity. Kids from the same street wearing the same clothes express their belonging to different clans of the intellect (well…) by which hue they pick for their nylon Alpha Industries MA-1 military flight jackets: neo-nazis – green; graffers – blue; hoodlums – black; turks – red; gays – silver; et cetera. Presumably Orwell or Huxley could not have imagined how well the human aptitude for conformity would fulfil their aesthetic visions of dystopia.”
