‘’I realized that the crushed cabin of my car, like some bizarre vehicle modified for extremes, was the perfect module for all the quickening futures of my life”
JG Ballard – Crash
C/A/R/S = CULTURE ALIENATION RITUAL SACRIFICE
C/A/R/S = CARTOON ADOLECENT RIOT STOOPIDITY
C/A/R/S = CAN ANYONE REALLY SURVIVE
CAR AS IDEA-OBJECT/ULTRA SYMBOL/LIFE+DEATH
MACHINE
A FIGHT THAT CANNOT BE WON
A VOLUNTARY IMPOTENT CAR CRASH
ATTACK THE MACHINE KNOWING ITS FUTILE
OPEN UP AND LET OFF THE STEAM
TAKE UP HAMMERS AND FEEL SOMETHING/ANYTHING
IM SO MODERN THAT EVERYTHING IS POINTLESS
AH SAID GODDAM
AH SAID GODDAM

FK Alexander is a Glasgow-based performance artist whose work concerns wound recovery, aggressive healing, radical wellness, and noise. FK’s work places the body at the centre of ritualised action in often ridiculous attempts to communicate ideas around new language, new violence, and new Love.
