The “Ship of Fools Project” is an installation on a sailboat. It incorporates painting, drawing, sculpture and textile art as an exercise in multi-disciplinary visual practices. It also employs the strategies and techniques of poetry to cohere these visual practices into an artistic practice of interdisciplinary. The boat is a purposeful receptacle for the artwork in that its definable location is slippery, tackable and temporary. It is a counter site / heterotopia because it surrenders itself to the water, making no permanent relationships, allowing for an unstable and mysterious location. The “Ship of Fools Project” incorporates haptic, nonlinear and anarchic methods (smooth) and places them in an environment that only understands in part how to support these methods (striated). The “Ship of Fools Project” depicts the ‘view from here’ as it takes shape, for the sake of clarification but more importantly as a claiming of this positioning within my practice.
