Bethan Huws, who had dedicated many years to studying the works of Duchamp and his appropriated materials, creates works herself that reflect the process of dis-identification. She takes simple objects. such as the cracker above, and places them in a scenario where their meaning can be reconsidered and recycled into new context.
Interestingly enough, Huws does not work with human focused propaganda, but rather takes focus on product placement and how those specific products' purposes can be altered and re purposed for art purposes. She uses written word and package design to construct an idea of what can be created from an already created material.
