'Cheese Mailing Service' is a series of works by Caz Egelie, adjecent to their 2021 series 'Late Lunch' and their ongoing 'Castle Works', in which the spaces and characters of a medieval castle are approached as a means to explore identities and social roles though seduction, play and daydreaming. In 'Late Lunch' we wander over to the nearby market just outside the southern gate, to have a taste, meet some familiar faces from the court and be seduced into a gluttinous world of fools and foods.
Now, the 'Cheese Mailing Service' has opened a stall at the medieval market, providing a selection of international cheeses, ready to be shipped anywhere during a market stroll.
Caz Egelie (1994) creates installations, performances, two-dimensional works and videos. In their multi-disciplinary body of work the visual vocabulary of the works is combined with Caz' conceptual approach, and their appetite for theatre and performativity. By referring to art history and its artists and taking on unusual ways of production and presentation, Caz plays a game with real and fake, fact and fiction, reproduction and 'the artist's signature'. By defying these categorisations, Caz engages in institutional critique from the position of the jester, resulting in what one could call 'institutional jest'.
