GRASSROOTS (the shun series)

By Liz Lee lizlee

Political ideologues, on either side, have flowered our language with buzzwords that, when isolated from context, reference an entirely different meaning. When taken literally, what do the words picture? When analyzed visually, what do the pictures tell?

Grassroots (the shun series) derives its title from the political use of language to distort, rather than reveal the truth. The images are of grass, taken literally, as much as possible, at the root level, in order to question, especially in a two-party system, where are the grassroots of politics today? The series plays with the associations of media, the implications of the photograph and the surprisingly suggestive and complex ambiguities of language.
