Pile of pure New Zealand 3ply wool, ca 10% acrylic yarn and artificial silk // Privy - White by Jan Fabre, created in 2002, is a striking tapestry that employs a black and white contrast to convey an unusual and surreal scene. The artwork features a row of toilet bowls arranged in a corner, each with fluid-like forms spilling from them, rendered in a monochromatic style that enhances the starkness and surreal quality. The checkered lines above add a geometric rigidity that contrasts with the organic flow of the spilling forms, while the triangular shapes in the top corners introduce a hint of symmetry and mystery. This tapestry, crafted with a blend of New Zealand wool, acrylic yarn, and artificial silk, explores themes of the mundane transformed into the surreal, inviting viewers to contemplate the boundary between utility and art, and to reflect on Fabre’s unique approach to everyday objects with a touch of absurdity.

What is Performance Art?
Performance Art is a genre of fine art that is traditionally interdisciplinary, involving various art forms. It can be scripted or unscripted, random or carefully orchestrated, spontaneous, or meticulously planned, with or without audience participation. Performance Art can be presented live or through media, with the artist either present or absent. It typically involves four basic elements: space, the performer’s body or presence through a medium, time, and the relationship between performer and audience. The artwork consists of actions performed by an individual or group in a specific time and space.
