Travel Documents - Cast Porcelain

The title suggests paperwork to enable free movement but a dainty pair of disembodied doll's legs speak of other things including identity, fragility, the need to run, what can be taken and what must be left behind. The work quietly evokes an interrogation of the bureaucracies that govern belonging. This work was made in response to the British Art Show 9 (BAS9) theme of Migration.
