Fliss Quick
Much Like Yesterday (documentation still II), 2018, Durational Performance.
Fliss Quick (b1978, Sheffield, UK) is a research-led, cross-disciplinary artist whose practice is concerned with the quotidian, human experience, narrative, propositions, and humour. Her work can be seen to be object-based, observational, anecdotal, situational, and performative. She uses narrative devices and approaches such as reframing, counter-narrative, and re-enactment to blur the distinction between fact and fiction, and to raise questions about social norms and assumptions. Recent enquiries reflect on her role as a domestic practitioner, and examine and contribute to, the critical discourse surrounding the roles and social obligations of women and of 'woman's work'. Fliss has exhibited internationally and completed residencies in Malaysia, Canada, and the UK. She received the Mary. E. Hofstetter Legacy Award for Visual Arts in 2015.
