Corin Sworn is interested in the means by which artifacts are borrowed, adapted and reconfigured to tell various stories. Her work often explores the alternate narratives that cultural products might develop through use.  Sworn is interested in hierarchies of attention, the systems that order these and how the erratic nature of subjective perception might undermine them.
