. Following her spellbinding turn shooting at sculptures she’d created in response to the works of Gaetano Pesce – the subject of Champ Lacombe’s inaugural exhibition – we were so enraptured that we decided to sit down with Sagg and get to the bottom of what, exactly, makes archery such a stylish sport.
Ciao! I would say my artistic practice is a mixture of video, sculpture and a strong body presence – I wouldn’t call it performance, but rather a way of training the body in several disciplines, which allows me to access different identities. I first took up a bow and arrow over a year ago, and it was really about shooting an arrow for a piece that I was working on. Since then, though, I’ve never put them down! I started competing indoors after two weeks, and then after a month, I was partaking in outdoor competitions, shooting at a 70 metres distance. The experience has been humbling and has unveiled qualities that I didn’t think were in me. I think archery, as opposed to other sports, doesn’t run on adrenaline.
This is the first time that I’ve shot my own sculptures – previously, I shot works that were made collaboratively with my friend Stefania Botoeva. This is also the first time where I semi-followed archery regulations, as I’m shot at Olympic distance – which is 70 meters – and the sizes of the target were the same as regular targets. There were just a few twists, though, as the targets I built nodded to the work of Gaetano Pesce.
