Tropical White started with the author's finding of Costa Rican pineapple in London. This meant a series of resignifications. The flesh of the pineapple is painted white to represent the process of resignification and colonization that tropicalness implies.
This project presents a view of tropicality as a system of organized representation that grooms tropical land and bodies for the consumption of first-world countries. By presenting broad and gross diagrams and collages of the workings within this representational system, this project aims to frame tropicality as an opportunity for deterritorialization by means of revelation, showing the mask as a mask, the collage as collage. The intent of this strategy comes from parody, as the power of the system fails to hold up when faced with its own absurdity.
