Dutty Water

Wangechi Mutu2007 - 2013

Kochi-Muziris Biennale

Kochi-Muziris Biennale
Fort Kochi, India

Dutty Water is a work that expresses my thoughts on how the idea of a clean, pure, neutral space is in fact nothing more than a very well constructed and heavily guarded fiction. In my mind there is in fact no such thing as intrinsic purity; purity is rather our attempt to sterilize a space or a thing to make it more digestible to our minds and perhaps more malleable to those of others.
