TASTE BY MURKA
The video called “TASTE” (2`30``) is connected with the painting called “TASTE”. As the video is about the painting being “licked”, Maarit Murka is testing the fact if physically and chemically licking Your creation can damage or to improve the creator. During several consultations with doctors it was proven that oil colour is not harmful for persons, but the fact that perfect, ideal photo realistic painting of Maarit Murka was “destroyed” by the artist herself, can be firstly disturbing for artist, but also for audience. The process doesn’t seem normal, but according to the artist, the only way to determine something, indeed is through natural experiments- direct contact ofcreation and creator.
