Becoming Penguin Series uses parody and performance to unravel the affectual residue of embodied relations and systems of power. How can a subject orient itself in a world where perspectives of meaning are dissolving into a groundless moment? Craig kept feeling drawn to images of penguins huddling together against violent climatic conditions and felt herself becoming penguin in a residue moment of loss and gain. Craig performs this embodied confusion with props made of cardboard in a relation homage to the discard of capitalism and her adoration of the film ‘Dr Caligari’s Cabinet”.
