Lady Kitt Artist Statement: I am Lady Kitt. I am a performance artist. In a practice which is increasingly socially engaged I explore creative ownership, private and public rituals associated with creativity, and the mythology of the artist; looking at the role of the audience in the realisation of work. I use performative work and information technology to open lines of communication between viewer, work and artist thus inviting the relationships between these elements to transform. In my work I explore creative authorship, offering viewers the opportunity to become involved in activities and ideas. I regularly use everyday, non-threatening materials; things that most people have access to, often using items that are absurd. In recent performances I have asked viewers to make pictures with toothpaste and bubble gum. I want my work to be beautiful, playful, entertaining and just a little enigmatic. I am utterly dedicated to making art accessible to as many people as possible.
