Ballett presents a new body of work consisting of sculpture, objects and drawings centred around a fictional play âThe Corpomastixâ. Working through a sculptural methodology and expressions of capital, the grotesque, where material and motif cycles in perpetual metamorphosis between staging and index.
The Bishops' Ban of 1599, banned satire from prose and verse, forcing an embodiment through the stage. This gave rise to the Elizabethan âWar of the Theatresâ until ultimately the suffix â-mastixâ, used in these plays, became generic for satire by the 1660s. The Corpomastix is a fabrication, a staging device, yoked units; Dog Latin.
