PARTICIPANT INC presents Narcissister, Studies for Participatory Sculptures, a solo exhibition of sculpture and collage. Known for working with the live body, Narcissister has created over two hundred collages that constitute research for unrealized (or unrealizable) sculptures and, central to the exhibition, a totemic sculpture. In the works on view, a multitude of orifices serve both to embrace and refuse historical representations of the feminine in art and pornography. The artist pays homage to porn performers, Martha Rosler’s photomontage series House Beautiful: Bringing the War Home, the early sculptures of Charles Ray, and Louise Bourgeois’ Totems, and cites references ranging from Kembra Pfahler’s Wall of Vagina to Pope.L’s Sweet Desire, among others. Amplifying and playing with the classical monolithic form with performers both real and artificial, the sculpture and collage works evoke objects of museum collections and historical archives.
