Drums

A band of drummers. One artist. A 1920’s bank vault, and one very interesting installation. The drum kit has been a focus of artist Lauren Brincat’s over the last few years. Her concern with the drum kit has allowed her to take the objects into many various forms within her work. It has been treated as a shrine, a corpse, a costume and a target. Each time it readdresses the objects individual orientations. Drums, is an installation as a result of a performance created by the Brincat, together with the assistance of several drummers. The only evidence that this spectacle ever took place, will be a few drums, epaulettes, some audio, a photo and anecdotal history of how the band came to inspire this most unusual work.
