| Statement |
Architecture and design often strive towards a utopian vision of life. I reference their shortcomings in my work to explore the disparity between a vision & its reality.
I am interested in how these ideas are expressed through material & form, and appropriate those found within domestic & architectural environments. My sculptures usually take on the form of utilitarian objects that have been rendered unfit for purpose, juxtaposed with a sleek finish that retains their imperfections.
Artificial materials are vain imitations of real, natural substances. I use them within my work to emphasise the increasingly blurred boundaries between reality and fiction.
