Phee Jefferies
My work is an exploration of absurdism with a focus on the human condition. In philosophy the absurd refers to the conflict between humanity's tendency to seek meaning in life or to find a reason for our existence, being met with the silent answer of a meaningless and non-rational universe. I am fascinated by this complex conflict of the human mind and the idea that by doing this we cause our own existence to be absurd. My work is an exploration of the absurd state in which humans cause ourselves to exist in, and an attempt to reflect this inner human conflict outward onto the body by manipulating my skin with latex.
