“I am an artwork” is a small glance into the difficult world of artwork-hood in contemporary society. The pressure that artworks face are explored through attempted integration into a gallery setting, and reveals a harrowing sense of institutional alienation that is forced upon artworks worldwide. The work culminates with the words of a frenchman (the fountainhead of gallery culture) reassuring the artwork on their endeavours, thus cementing the artwork’s value in the socio-linguistic gallery system.
