You Won’t Believe The Snap In Your Throat examines the processes of digestion at the locus of industrial and post-industrial fabrication methods. Examining the consumption, secretion and expulsion of various materials, toxic and suggestive, Black’s work reflects and evinces the processes of their making.

Pushing difficult forms through multiple methods of production that include sand casting, 3D printing, electroplating, plastic fabrication and rubberising; these objects and their surfaces allude to their violent and awkward encounters within industrial expanses. Imbued with the scars of these processes, Black hopes these occulted methods of manufacturing are embodied within multifarious objects that hold their own orbit.

In doing so, this exhibition questions how much we can consume and how much we can inhale as embodiment is explored amongst a network of potentially dangerous and evocative substances.
