Taneesha Ahmed & Alex Moore (The Denmasons)
The Denmasons project is a collaborative project between Taneesha Ahmed and Alex Moore. The intentions of our art practice remains to promote the ideology of The Denmasons.

The imperative for the Denmasons to be a collaborative piece was to produce art that did not have an individual authorship. The paradox of the formation of a cult would suggest that there is no identifiable author, but this is in fact myth being presented as truth. The Denmasons fictionalises and subverts their own authority, by parodying themselves and their actions. The intention was to create and disseminate fiction as fact, where we have created a layered narrative that is simultaneously non-sensical and completely farcical.
