Phalanges

By  Charlie Barlow 2014 - 2015

Charlotte Barlow

Latex gloves, liquid latex, sunflower oil, mud - the ongoing work involves various numbers of Phalanges in different locations - people are covered and tied into hundreds of blown up latex gloves with little vision. They wander, shuffle and jump around; as they move a rubbery sound is created and gloves are shed.
