My practice is concerned with processes of accumulation, modification and collage-like strategies that extend across media. I use materials to mediate conditions of control and amorous gesture in an attempt to describe a space between representation and where thoughts continually race back to personal and bodily activities. I’ve manipulated readymade ‘horror’ props onto a broader sculptural framework
(railings repurposed from the tip) so that their latex borders and features are loosened and less apparent. ‘Individual Medley’ hopes to propose the possibility of shifting stances or points of view, the parallax, and with a nod to Mary Shelley and subsequent ‘monsters’, the transformative potential in a conspiracy of bodies rather than one indefinite form.
