Alice Austin

My world: A Tick Tock jumble, 2021

Video performance

Artist, Alice Austin, is a sufferer of mental health and uses therapeutic techniques as well as ritualism to help herself maintain rhythm with what is often an erratic mind. With COVID, she found herself, like a lot of people, were also finding it difficult maintaining rhythm and watching days, weeks and months ticking away. Austin was unable to return to what would be deemed normal like others, due to her reclining mental health. Making her a homemade artist, Austin used her hands, quite literally. My world: A Tick Tock Jumble, is a video performance and illustration depicting different ritualistic events in her day that brings her joy and sadness - the clock ticks away and the time isn’t disclosed. The audio is a combination of all points in the day to represent her erratic and jumbled up mind.
