Two Sketches for Antipodysseus (2013)
Before the discovery of continents such as Australia the region below the equator was considered by Europeans a space where logic and social structure were potentially inverted. Such myths became ritualised in actions such as the dunking of a ship’s captain into the ocean when crossing into the southern hemisphere.

Installation: “Lines of Force” at SCA Galleries, The University of Sydney. Curated by Nic Tsoutas

Camera: Jürgen Kerkovius
