A white cube Located within An
Institution

To mark the white walls with black
The presence of the black fights against the white And the white fights to be present

The labour of the gesture is seen through the mark making of the black paint onto the white walls. The texture across the surface of the walls reveal the intentionality and charcoal quality.

A Space is being Acknowledged. Reclaimed. Repurposed. Repositioned.

The institute and the self
demand for the walls to be returned to their original custom.

A crime is committed

The black walls are once again white and the black is once again hidden - this wrongful act was committed by me

The action completed by my physical body that is representative of two individual cultures
But

Inside exists
An in-between space that I find myself idle within

The white room that sits within the Sculpture department within the Victorian College of the Arts
With the white door and silver handle With a polished wooden floor has an Archaeology embedded within its walls
