Soap, Soapbox
“Revolution” consists of soap bars cast from fists. The soap fists are packed in cartons labelled “Dissolve One, Make Another,” suggesting that once the soap fist has dissolved in one’s hand, what is left is not emptiness but rather one’s own fist. Displayed along with the cartons of soap is the wooden soapbox in which they were mailed. Spray painted outlines of feet on the soapbox remind one of its other function – as a temporary platform from which impromptu speeches may be given.
