Prudence Murphy: Detective Special

Regular price $35.00On Sale $10.00
Description
Detective Special invites us to examine our response to guns – the gun as fetish, the gun as purchasable part, the gun transcending the world of play and moving across borders in the form of illegal trafficking. The initial impetus for this series sparked from a broken toy gun that Prudence Murphy found kicking around her home. It was a replica of the Colt ‘Detective Special’, a concealable pocket revolver manufactured for plain-clothes detectives in the US in 1927. The gun had been broken – all that remained were the grip and the cavity where the cylinder had been. For over a year, Murphy researched and collected guns, dismembered them with a hacksaw and photographed them.
