New Country Joins Venice Biennale 2024
David Irwin
I am serving the leaders who power holistic health and wellness with expansive architecture.
Project 34
Charred wood members javelin up from a weathered fishing boat on an unassuming canal in Venice, Italy.
The unconscious depths lay below the small craft and have been made solid and distinguishable.
What happens when we work on those shitty memories and traumas we've picked up along the way in our journeys?
Well, it can look like a lot of chilling and going through the motions until it clears. It can also look like reading a lot of Jung, seeing a great trauma-based therapist and making work to give space for all the shit to come up and dissipate, leaving our bodies once and for all, finally giving us new access to recreate the story we've been playing in our heads.
This has been my experience with my journey as an artist. And the tough times led to this piece, project 34, representing the country in which I live, the Terra Expanse at the 60th Venice Biennale.
Godspeed,
—David
