Description
Despite the outcry and discourse around the politics and problematics of monuments and monumentality, too often the solutions proposed amount to a replacement or displacement of the objects of monumental thinking, and the concomitant narratives of history, memory, nation, and value, rather than a direct challenge to the logic of monument itself. Myers, with these experiments explores what it means to think of monuments as temporary, conditional, and ephemeral. What does it do to the logic of monument if we make things that are as fleeting as thought, as temporary as code, as convenient as a text message.
