Drawn and Quartered

​2010, digital video, stereo, 3:00

Drawn and Quartered explores nationalism, clanship, treason and attendant violence through motifs of flag-waving and national dress.

​A naked, fully painted tartan figure attempts to blend with a skewed-perspective tartan background (the artist’s own ‘clan’), in which a poem is graven. Bound hand and foot, the figure attempts a traditional war dance.
