On Native Land : Mail Art Story : Death-ball Visits Art Gallery, or, When is the logic of faraway death not faraway enough?

Added on January 16, 2015 by Drittens Cat.

Materials: a large silk lantern, paint, a sacred valley in an occupied nation, a camera, rope, a ladder, a long metal rod, one large home-made corrugated plastic mailing envelope, stamps.

Type: installation + mail art.

In August 2014 The Pinky Show was invited to participate in a mail art exhibition and was told by the event organizers, "You can send anything... You can send rocks if you want." Not interested in sending rocks, we decided to send them a large death ball instead, along with a couple of post cards with an explanation of where our ball comes from and what it represents.

Dreams & Nightmares of Empire : Biological Specimens from The Pinky Show collection

Added on May 30, 2013 by Drittens Cat.

Materials: crocheted octopus (wool), specimen jar, formaldehyde

Type: poster, 20x30 inches

Summary: We like illustrated thought-experiments. For example, here we have a baby octopus dead in a specimen jar, collected off the south shore of Hawaii in 1893 before it had a chance to grow up to be an adult imperial animal. What kind of world would we be living in now had the U.S. not chosen Empire as its future, way back when at the end of the 19th century? What kind of different thoughts and actions would have been necessary to avert the catastrophes brought on by the imperial clashes of the 20th century? What preventable future disasters are we facing right now? And what should we be doing about them?

Figure 1. War Deaths, Traumas, and Other Misc. Injuries (two versions)

Added on June 14, 2011 by Drittens Cat.
Type: diagramFormat: digital image
Summary: The image that most often comes to mind when someone says "casualty of war" is usually that of a soldier shot by another soldier from an opposing army. In reality, over the past half-century or so, victims of wars and other violent conflicts have become increasingly civilian (and often disproportionately women and children). We present here two different versions of our diagram for your consideration - one visually explicit, one not - for a variety of learning situations and audiences.

Warning: This image contains images that may disturb some viewers.
