Launch of Burn in Flames: Post-Patriarchal Archive in Circulation
Attached documents
Burn in Flames: Post-Patriarchal Archive in Circulation is a collaboration with Jesse Jones as part of In the Shadow of the State.
This active archive does not deal with the objects of the past: it anticipates future, ideologically obsolete material. We select and process items from everyday experience, naming them as evidence of the current, late-capitalist oppression of women. Objects are identified, stamped, and placed back in circulation. The archive is an active critique.
This work is presented through a workshop / demonstration format. Stamps are prepared and distributed with our collaborators, such as the new library at Callan Workhouse Union. Virtual stamps include #burninflames, #pparchive, and #misogynisttimemachine.
