MUDDY
The era of the unexplainable growth of gravity has come. With it an increasing number of sinkholes, cases of arthritis, high blood pressure and an overall mood of pressure. The rocket digs itself and it is here I define my excavation site.
This online exhibition is a digital version of the book Muddy by Dutch artist Emmeline de Mooij. DeMooij prsented her first solo show in the United States with the launch of this new book, co-published by Capricious Space in New York.
Please buy the book on their website.
“Gravity grows and my overweight forces me to descend into the ground - behind the skin, beyond daylight. I have signed up for the course ‘Cave Diving Inside the Brain’. When I sink up to my knees into the brown substance, I find myself face to face with a troll. She introduces herself as Muddy and tells me about the ultimate wish for weightlessness. I say, ‘Yes, I see, but, just these heavy clothes I bought myself’…” –Emmeline de Mooij
