Plastique Fantastique was created for East 05, Norwich Gallery; a comic that drew upon the First Communiqu?: Manifesto of Plastique Fantastique - On Baroque Practice for its narrative. The images in the comic where produced from traced photographs from newspapers and magazines.
The comic introduces Crystal, a former fashion model and traitor prophet who grows a crystal geode for a head. Her teaching draws upon the ideas and work of Robert Smithson and Leigh Bowery. Crystal guides the formation and actions of Guerrilla Plastique Fantastique before she crystalises entirely and she becomes mineral.
The comics were exhibited along side the (Second) Final Communique of Plastique Fantastique: ‘On what must be done’.
The Plastique Fantastique comic was produced in 2005 in an edition of 1,000. Distributed free at East 2005, Norwich Gallery.
The comic was presented in piles of glitter and mirror shards surrounded by posters.
