Thesis

The Clown, the Witch & the Vampire

Through sound and video installation, costume design, public art and durational performance, Sures’ MFA thesis exhibition explores how archetypes can draw personal narratives into larger discussions around wicked problems. By examining the patriarchal systems that contribute to capitalism and the climate crisis, the archetypal characters act as physical representations of memory, trauma, and the unconscious. Serving as catalysts for change, they invite audiences to weave their own narratives into the fabric of a shared dreamscape.
