From Delusional Banana
An exaggerated
upright form insists on presence, while its surface begins to give way.
This work takes
the figure of Priapus as a starting point.
The form is
extended and exposed, held in a state of constant assertion.
At the same time,
the surface remains unstable—uneven, fragile, and close to collapse. What
appears forceful at first begins to shift, revealing a tension between display
and vulnerability.
The use of the
banana introduces a familiar object into this structure, carrying associations
of repetition and consumption. Within the work, it becomes something
else—stretched, displaced, and uncertain.
The form does not settle. It holds itself in a continuous state of excess, where control and failure exist at the same time.
