Incremental Maintenance was a project that involved me vacuuming three artist run initiatives in Brisbane – inbetweenspaces, Accidentally Annie Street and Level. The contents of this process were then presented at Boxcopy.
Thinking about relocating, recontextualising and re-presenting the residual activities of art-making from other exhibition sites, this project developed out of an interest in using the intangible signs of the body as material. This process came out of exploring the hinge between presence and absence and was informed by Duchamp’s idea of infra mince, in that it implicates the potential of art to imagine the passage of one possibility to another.
