Vandalised Sculptures
Vandalised Sculptures is a remaking of found images sourced though internet image searches of the same phrase. Bringing together public sculptures from all over the world that have been defaced, torn down or altered, this series of works explores our complex relationship with public sculpture and its capacity to become a point of action.
Made at JDZ International studios in Jingdezhen, China, in collaboration with sundaymorning@EKWC, celebrating 50 years of the European Ceramic Workcentre.
