Penny Goring

Jean Genet Reblogged This

Campoli Presti's second entry of Logbook focuses on the work of Penny Goring. The opening of her first exhibition at the gallery - Escape from Blood Castle - coincided with the beginning of social confinement in Paris and turned her installation into an exclusively digital platform, accidentally extending her engagement with online representation of subjectivity. The presentation features two video works (Fear and Please Make Me Love You, both 2014) and their respective texts, displayed separately.

Fear

I fear there is no god.
I know there is no god.
I fear this.
I fear I have no faith.
I fear death.
I fear love.
I fear responsibility.
I fear there is no one person I could love completely and for ever.
I fear myself.
I fear my body and brain.
I fear my addictive nature and the way it tricks me.
I fear my mood swings and instability.
I fear money.
I fear poverty.
I fear my anger.
I fear ageing.
I fear fat.
I fear food.
I fear relapse.
I fear my perversity.
I fear my sexuality.
I fear I will not get what I fear I want.
I fear what I want.
I fear I will not get what I need, let alone want.
I fear lonely, drunken, drugged-up defeat.
I fear arthritis.
I fear hip replacement.
I fear ugliness and stupidity.
I fear violence.
I fear war.
I fucky hate it when I can't get through to you.
I fear people.
I fear outer space
and the Klu Klux Klan
and the gas chambers
and murder and rape and Vikings on horseback who will slash my spine and pull out my lungs to make the sign of the eagle.
