Test Excavation
Test Excavation (2017)
On Monday 24 April an action took place in the gallery. Visceral, brutal, repetitive and rapid. And while the action has faded the gesture has been recorded. Unveiled by the forensic bloodstain reagent Bluestar (a luminol-based, two-part chemical compound that dissolves in water), the solution produces a blue luminescence that lasts for only a few mere seconds when sprayed onto a surface that contains haem, a component of haemoglobin.
Thank you to Kieryn McKay, Elise Harmsen, Fran Heinz, Sach Catts, Paul Greedy, Hannah Riley, Nick Strike, Caraline Douglas, Blow Up Imaging and Southern Biological.
