I ______ my Beuys @ James Taylor Gallery

A Durational Performance by Deej Fabyc

Artist Deej Fabyc has been worrying and troubling familial relationships in her work for many years. The new work takes the concept of the familial in a different direction as she claims notable art world figures as members of her family. In this work Fabyc is developing a complex maternal relationship with a life size effigy of Joseph Beuys. Over three hours on Saturday, Mr Beuys will be tended to with a variety of intimate gestures, as the Artist slowly moves through the James Taylor gallery. Finishing up in the Five Years space

I am presenting this Incredible Miracle at Fete for the Wicked on the hour 1pm to 9pm
That's nine performances in 9 hours. I dont want to spill too much information before hand; but yes it does involve fluids and I am going to be assisted by a couple of my Ex Students from Newport School of Art Media and Design live artist Kieron Da-silva Beckerton (Graduated in 2007) and media artist Glen James Pearce (Graduated in 2008)

Doesn't he look forlorn?
Looking at this image led me to create a life sized rendition of Mr Beuys with which to play out a series of motherly vignettes .... Stay tuned for the film the photos and the performance
