Using the self and dreadlocked hair as an antagonism, A Body is Here (2016) pushed at the peripheries of proximal comfort and social tolerance by presenting a masked form standing in the guise of the present, yet unseen museum docent. Standing in place on the landing of the main stairway at the Picasso Museum for the full length of the museum's opening hours, no breaks were taken whilst museum visitors tried to enter the exhibition rooms by passing by the masked body without veering too close. Throughout the day, no one broke the invisible circumference surrounding the masked body, with the circle widening despite the steady stream of visitors making their way up the steps. With each passing hour, the work underscored the sombre duality of intentional avoidance and tension-filled visibility meted out to othered bodies - in this instance, a female wage-worker of African descent - within Westernised societies.
