Self
® Assessment, Self ® Amendment
Statement
Self ® Assessment and Self ® Amendment are pharmaceutical
type kits. The kits and the experience of purchasing them offer
a critique of quick-fix therapy culture, capacity for self-obsession
and the conviction that our foibles can be cured instantaneously.
Description
Multiples of the kits are sold from an adapted vending machine,
(there are 200 different versions of the badge included in Self®
Assessment, the words correspond to those in the tick here section
of the Self® Amendment insert.) Self® Assessment / Self®Amendment
is interactive; allowing the audience to instantaneously purchase
a piece of art and bring it home with them. This work lives on in
bathroom cabinets, bedside lockers, library shelves and jacket lapels
all very the country and internationally.
