Without A Trace destroying the archive
Exhibited; The Joinery gallery, Dublin
2009
Video 5.48 minutes
This video work was made as part of the installation 'Without A Trace destroying the archive installed in The Joinery gallery in December of 2009. The video is a document of photographic archive material being destroyed. The photographs and negatives come from my own personal archive of images from time spent performing with Irish drag king troupe The Shamcocks in 2005. The project responds to concerns about the preservation of visual histories and questions the role of the archive.
