Prof. André Stitt
Performing Political Acts
“For me art is an act of dissent, an act of resistance. It is a moral action, perhaps the last spiritual process.” - Kerry Trengove, 1946 – 1991
Stitt talks about his formative work in Belfast from the late nineteen seventies. He reflects on how the political situation informed his early site-specfic ‘akshuns’ and how these initial explorations still influence his present day art making.
