Vanessa Kamp

Vanessa Kamp has
always worked with the immaterial, the ephemeral, the immediate (response) and
inevitably, used her performances and
transitory "temporary" travelling expositions with a rented U-Haul truck, as the
means. In House-Home, Vanessa has used and explored and
here at Flashpoint, ENLARGED like some Oldenburg sculpture run amok, dust.
Yes, dust - or some particle similar, an atom, molecular
structure, some organic form coral? or simply paper cut-outs taped and assembled
together? Dispersed throughout the gallery space, these
"rearrangements" of sorts either literally or figuratively, float and move about
the space troubled only by the passing movements of those
visiting. The catch? none, if you don't happen to notice or aren't looking
very closely, much like dust that accumulates on the window sill -
how did it get there - we wonder - as much as the cut-out up above devolves,
like Courbet's L'Origine du Monde, it's pornographic secrets.
