Hoochie-Coochie and the Creative Spirit
The exhibition at the London Riflemaker Gallery searches the loss of self in the creative process. Here, voodoo practice – the ideas of possession and initiation in particular is a metaphor for the states the artist must go through to be able to create: trances, hallucinations, and exploration of creativity through language, rituals…
Thanks to the selection of works shown here and the soundtrack, the audience interacts with phenomena such sacrifice, hysteria and irrationality.
