ARTIST STATEMENT: |
- |
|
The subliminal codes of behaviour hidden in objects and design
of manmade spaces, is a concurrent theme throughout the work.
The use of miniature scale is a metaphor for escapism and
voyeurism, central concerns within the western world. Since the
miniature space is physically out of bounds, I am interested in
the transformative effect on the viewer, from miniature set to
psychological trigger of remembered places. Familiar locations
and objects merge together to create an unsettling parallel
world and a sense of longing. The sculptural interiors are a
series of subtle visual spectacles, inviting curiosity and total
immersion into uncertain narratives. |
