Untitled (Anxious Banana)

Lucienne Pallas Bestall

Guided by principles of chance - beginning with two newspaper headlines drawn from a hat and continuing along an arbitrary and erratic chain of associations - the accidental encounter of two unrelated objects, a banana and clothing pegs, presents a curiously novel juxtaposition. At once humorous and unsettling, this encounter, though coincidental and largely meaningless, produces strange effects, sparking several (uncomfortable) associations.
