Action Redaction is an ongoing project that examines redaction as a form of material and semiotic transformation. Quin’s first investigation into redaction was in 2013 through her work ‘Screen Presence’, which traced the use of redaction from its familiar two dimensional form, (the printed document), to it’s spatialized appearance in the world, (on city walls, blacked out glass, garments such as the niqab).

More recently, this material exploration clashes the political aesthetic of redaction with more familiar domestic contexts. Redacted Mugs highlights the ongoing dynamics and flows of material products; from production, through different models of promotion and consumption into reuse and afterlife.

The work has developed as Redacted Ceramics, and shown as part of Domestic Monsters (2022) show at the Constance Howard Gallery, a group show of Design researchers looking at the political and ethical dynamics of craft, art and design objects within a domestic environment.
