Shredders: the
final reckoning
What
follows is a selection of the results from Shredders, a CIRCA
correspondence-art project by Gina Davey. You can view the whole
project here.
Davey herself now reports.
| The
Shredders project began in the Spring issue of CIRCA
magazine. I wanted to see how people would respond to four images
taken from contemporary consumer culture and express their diversity.
The images - an ear, a pair of lips, the grid of a car and cherries
- were available in the bookmark of CIRCA and online. |

I
am very pleased with the responses which came from various sources
including Ireland, Portugal and the U.S.A. A sincere thanks
to all participants for their time and effort. It was a worthwhile
correspondence and I hope people enjoyed participating. |
