About this work

Self-Realisation: Becoming The Self is a live performance centred on the continual reconfiguration of a modular ceramic sculpture composed of large-scale slip-cast bricks. Developed alongside Becoming The Self, the performance approaches identity and rebuilding as unstable processes shaped through movement, repetition, meditation, and collective presence rather than fixed form.

Through slow bodily gestures and repeated restructuring of the ceramic elements, the sculpture shifts from a static object into an evolving condition that changes across time and activation. Each performance produces a new configuration while retaining traces of previous states, allowing the work to function simultaneously as sculpture, action, and living spatial archive.

Audience members are invited, if they wish, to contribute handwritten reflections and wishes for peace directly onto selected ceramic surfaces. These accumulated inscriptions gradually become embedded within the evolving structure itself.

Through live activation, participation, and continual transformation, Self-Realisation: Becoming The Self reflects on fragility, adaptation, coexistence, and the ongoing process of becoming shaped through lived experience and collective memory.
