Artist Talk: Constant Dullaart

Any Tool Is a Vessel for Culture

What gives different tools their agency and cultural identity? How are tools colored by the cultures that create them? From critiquing to making, if art would be a novel way of fishing, why only provide rare fish? A reflection and walkthrough of Constant Dullaart's practice over the last ten years: Jennifer in Paradise (2013), which featured the first photo ever photoshopped; archival transactions on the Bitcoin blockchain made in 2014 with the now-defunct ascribe.io; and new works made with the new artist-run social exhibition platform common.garden.
