Cristal Johnson
Knead, Frame, Discard

Before dough is baked it is alive: it is worked, it rises and eventually decomposes. The substance is non-static, unsettled and uncontrolled. 

‘Knead, Frame, Discard’ exhibits transient work in the gallery space and generates discussion around how time-based installation contributes to experience rather than the profitability of art. The installation challenges our preconceived conceptions of traditional presentation through deconstruction and re-positioning. The work intends to evaluate and consider what role non-cherishable materials play within a gallery context.
