by the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art for the exhibition
'Cycle Tracks Will Abound in Utopia', Team
Joy questions the role of international organisations
in the wider ambitions of the world - if indeed there are
any.
In the piece, almost two hundred sticks appear to support two walls that may either be falling down or in the process of construction. Each stick represents an international organisation with its length determined by the number of that organisation's member countries. Every country has a unique colour which is illustrated in the key painted on the walls. Other artists included: Ingrid Book and Carina Hedn, Christian Capurro, Emily Floyd, Alban Hajdinaj, Nora Martirosyan, Chad McCail, Martin McInerney, Callum Morton, Raquel Ormella, Pia Rnicke, Katya Sander, Tony Schwensen, Dmitry Vilensky, Danielle van Vree, Guan Wei, Kan Xuan and Carey Young |
