Tim A Shaw's work combines images and symbols from different periods in macho culture to create more excessive or ambiguous identities. Shawʼs mixed media postcard assemblages explore how we can alter ourselves not only physically with silicone implants or re-constructive surgery, but also socially and culturally. Through every slit and stitch in his collage, gender, place and ethnicity become fluid categories. One reading is that identity is an endlessly malleable construction, but Shaw's work suggests something else; that no matter how hard we strive to meet the demands of a society which values, superficial fulfilment, external beauty and instant gratification, we are doomed tragically and ludicrously to fail.
