A MESSAGE TO ALL YOU DICKHEADS OUT THERE...

Dance of the Dicks (2017) Install at Sydney College of the Arts Honours Grad Show

Dance of the Dicks is a collection of ideas and personal thoughts centered around masculinity. Through anecdotes and bad jokes, the works explore archaic notions of the masculine and its now hopeful demise in the contemporary. Blending collage, drawing, video, textile and print, the works aim to critique hierarchies and histories associated with manhood while simultaneously appealing to its toxic, or degenerative side through crude dick jokes and ‘hectic dance bangers’. While the works are a critique of hyper-masculinity, it’s intended to open up dialogues with the perpetrators themselves. Ultimately, the aim is to show men that there is a more pluralistic approach to masculinity that can break away from notions of the ‘genius’ and allow for a revision of what it means to be a man.
