Roederer-Morin. Ayoye ouch responds
to Jaune,
rouge, bleu
Responding to the aesthetics
and “fine engineering” in the structure of Rouge, jaune, bleu, her bookwork grew out of recent performances
entitled Bacterial
Conversations. Pointing to contemporary political and social tensions
and apparent individual indifference, she turns her investigations to the ways
individuals can communicate associated traumas through the shared meaning of
their own bacteria. Each petri dish in this work holds a specific type of
trauma. She states: “My work revolves around the idea of time as an accumulation of wounds,
of selves as topographies of scars and of identities as constructed around,
within or in avoidance of traumas.” As an adjunct she constructed a narrative
from the responses to an online
questionnaire related to trauma.
Alix Roederer-Morin is a BFA Print Media student at Concordia University
where she has explored performance art as well.
