Daren Higham

�Thank you for believing in me�?� (blank) 2005
300 sheets of A4 paper cut and folded into the form of origami bombs, suspended and arranged as a �bomb shower�.


The standardised process by which each sheet of paper is subjected to, the cutting, folding and inflating which creates the form of origami bomb, is theoretically identical. But the repetitive process does not necessarily create exact copies. The minor inflections and differences in fold and handling results in a similarity, but no two are the same.
Each is a simple but unique form.
Each a character with a potential that takes up space.
Each is a bomb with potential.

If each was filled with�.

Daren�s interest in multiple�s as installation is driven by and attempts to offer a confrontation, a commentary on current affairs. Our individual insecurities and indifference towards them, our apparent inability to accept and address the long histories behind these recent events and the ever growing list of named suicide bomber and victim.
