THE TRACES WE LEAVE
SUSANNAH HAIGHT
The Traces We Leave is a conceptual work which explores the concept of human impact, and how the choices we make as a collective society leave permanent physical marks on the world we live on. The work was made through a performance which took place earlier this year where Susannah used her own body as a paintbrush, using physical gestures and movements which left permanent stains on the canvas she performed on.
Interweb explores the relationship we have with each other and investigates the concept of collective responsibility that each of us have as we carry out our daily lives. The work features two bodysuits which have been sewed together using red elastics. The work is meant to be worn by two individuals, as they attempt to navigate the space around themselves tied to each other.
