Through material-led sculpture and manipulation of pre-existent objects and sites, Kate Harrison’s practice considers art as a set of iterative skills, temporal forms and collective relations. Harrison is interested in challenging coercive economic powers and subtle hierarchical systems by developing a practice that is paradoxically not subsumable under the law of value. Often temporary and interventionist her work examines the relationship between identity and place produced in a manipulated locality, this exposes the framing conditions and operating systems in exhibition making that echoes contradictions in contemporary living.
Her practice is not something that denies or impedes the production process of anonymous labour as a result of external ‘interference’ but is in explicit cooperation with the hands of the anonymous non-artist, authorship is not in response to representation of an external object but in selection, arrangement, superimposition and juxtaposition of a concept within anthropological enquiries where the capitalist value form can be contested through artistic agency.
