The Silence of Slow Violence
By Liz Clifford
2023
A working drawing for sculpture in graphite, ink and wash, addressing the treatment of living bodies by harsh constraints. The practice of stapling fencing wire directly to tree trunks as an example of slow violence, both mundane and ubiquitous, with parallels in the assaults made on our human bodies.
