BYRON PETERS, 2233
BYRON PETERS, 2233
Hammock and Balcone present 2233, a new public installation by Byron Peters. 2233 engages the production of space through the closure of space; it is a parafiction that employs emptiness as substance and reactions as material. This project stands in opposition to Vancouver’s recent failures to provide adequate social housing and it presents contradictions within class, ethics, survival and time. 2233 complicates the symbolic use of benevolence and social capital as aggression by reflecting the City’s politics of representation.
Byron Peters is a Vancouver-based artist. He is currently an artist in residence at The Hammock Residency and is a member of LMPC (The Lower Mainland Painting Co.), Coupe L’état, VANACT and the music projects Amor de Cosmos, Riddley Walker, Glass Armonica and The Volunteer Ecstatic Orchestra.
