Annual Portrait with Santa: Christmas Eve 2007, Jessica Layton
C-type print
I consider myself an instigator: through employing a variety of subversive tactics, I orchestrate situations in which unsuspecting people become participants in the creation of the work. I see this as a way of examining and reconfiguring the relationship that exists between artist, subject and viewer.
