Bratty instigator. Pleasure seeker. Unapologetic king of filth. Welcome to the Rat’s Nest is an abject feast for the senses spanning performance video, soft sculpture, and installation. This work sees Amanda Wolf transformed into their rodent alter ego, a kink and cheese fuelled punk transfixed by the material lure of the trap and the perverse desire to be captured. Welcome to the Rat’s Nest revels in the complex fantasy spaces that surround desire and indulges in the crusty excess of the New Plague Age.
