Barbara
Meneley began her working life at fifteen as a truck stop
waitress in Fish Creek, Alberta. Since then, she has done a lot
of things.
She
is a dedicated member of many artist collectives and collaborations,
and likes to do things alone too. A visual artist employing a range
of creative media, Barbara is currently completing her MFA in Intermedia
at the University of Regina.
The
Line Up Utility Kit
It's said we spend many years of our lives in line ups; it’s
a certain number of years, I can’t remember how many. It’s
more time than we spend doing other things: perhaps reading, laughing,
or fucking. And we wait these years in line, standing one behind
another, rolling our eyes and avoiding each other’s gaze.
What
would happen if line ups became fun, a good way to talk to strangers,
if for no other reason than why not? To this end I have developed
the Line Up Utility Kit, a collection of ways to relax and perhaps
get to know your neighbour in line. Light and portable, the kit
contains a selection of toys, games, and suggestions for breaking
the ice. Each item is individually wrapped and categorized, and
for extra personal enjoyment no two kits are the same.
The
Line Up Utility Kit is an artist service commodity for modern
times.
