I want the work to infiltrate a space; a surface and give a sense and experience that is simple and pure.
In our global culture of mass consumerism, I use the everyday mass-produced, consumer objects and images that surround us and re-fabricate them to alter their normal form slightly, yet still retain their value within product design and consumer society.
The final pieces work on more than one level, drawing you in to know more of the objects or image that seemingly are not what they seem; not as they should be; in the wrong place; not doing what they were designed to do, that value is redefined and changed.
Yet as a whole are right – realigned and reformed; given a new life, all previous purpose removed.
I like to explore new avenues with in the mass-consumer world we live in, and give it a new life with in a hands on art that has craft at its roots. From mass-produced an individual work.
