Dirty Washbasins; Finding Beauty in the Abject., influenced by Julia Kristeva's 1980s interpretation of the Abject, that is; bits of our physical selves and social identity that have since been rejected. A corpse is an extreme example, hairs in a washbasin, a less dramatic one, of that which has been cast out of the cultural world. The beauty of these otherwise repulsive cast-offs, for me, lies in their resonance with the socially rejected other.
