An Exploration of Untaught Masculinity
The razor is a common tool. When it is introduced by a mentor to a young person it can symbolize a passage into adulthood. Without an introduction or guidance it can also turn into a foreign object that serves little purpose other than to cut and mutilate. Over the last year I have been on a journey of self deconstruction. This journey has pushed me to look at my experiences of going though adolescence and exploring my developing masculinity with out a father. When interacting with the installation please take the time to watch the whole video while explore the space.
