Mark Handforth
Rising Sun, 2003
installation in Magasin's «rue» June - October 2004
In his assemblages, Mark Handforth often brings together objects from
the collective everyday with more personal objects. At the heart of his
strategy are cultural shifting, re-contextualisation, the relativity of
interpretations and at the same time their similarities from one country
to another.
Aware that there are as many interpretations as interpreters, Mark Handforth
cultivates the playful aspect of the creative process. He creates continuity
in his work by delivering it like a story in episodes, which permits him
to see his work become richer from new readings and allows our apprehension
of things to evolve.
