Sleep Version, 2021

Molly Palmer: Sleep Version is from Soft Systems, a body of work that explores the relationship between buildings and bodies, featuring a series of characters that are factory workers and employees. It was made during my employment as the manager of a furniture making factory, when I became obsessed with the machinery catalogues we received in the mail. I also developed a habit of walking through the factory at night, imagining different functions and realities for the dormant machines. The painting shows a machine with funnels and valves exuding disembodied workers' heads augmented with symbolic embellishments that could be cyborg extensions.
