Simon Tatum
About
Simon Tatum is an interdisciplinary artist. His works center procedures that loosely follow Du Bois’s message of double-consciousness. He focuses on the actions of undoing, remaking, disassembling, and reassembling print imagery (ex: advertisements/ documentary images) and found objects through his authorship. The imagery and objects he chooses to manipulate are relevant to his interests in colonial narratives, tourism, and his identity as a mixed-race Caribbean male who grew up negotiating foreign expectations of cultural aesthetics. His works usually take the form of prints, drawings, sculptures, videos and installations.
