    super low frequency attenuation deflector, #2

    The installation plays with the vibration and frequencies of colour and light.

    There is a type of system implied by the discarded ventilation units. It produces and reflects visual noise – vibrations and frequencies produced by colour and light. The “noise” bounces between the glass elements which produce them. The steel elements form a system which includes acoustic attenuation, a type of dampening, but the glass, and…

    There’s an urban myth which says that a school in the UK was forced to change its motto, “I hear, I see, I learn” because the Latin subjected it to ridicule! This piece plays with that motto “Audio Video Disco” as its title; the idea of gaining knowledge juxtaposed against the inherent humour we interpret…

    sea painting: a paper’s journey

    Lured by romantic notions, I took a roll of paper into the sea and out again onto the shore, reconnecting with nature physically through a performance of sorts which simultaneously produced a work on paper en plein air, thus resulting in an absurdity that is at one and the same time capable of being both…

    all at sea

    Completely lost or deeply confused, out of sight of land; as a nation surrounded by water, we are unironically “at sea”; our country has perhaps lost its anchor. A discombobulated nation; adrift in a dangerous or uncertain position. And whilst all around are playing, an insignificant boat, all at sea, sinks unnoticed.

    The magnet becomes a lens of touch. Attraction, resistance, force and weight; feeling the environment through the pull of a magnet on metal or the weight of an object on a string. ​One can reflect on the items collected as archaeological finds and muse upon what it says of our culture anthropologically.
