About the Artwork

Articulating the sensation of experiences has been a long running thread in my practice. First in response to dominance of conceptual work and now in response to the rise of the digital world view. This work refers to the feeling of finding your keys down the back of the sofa, where they have been for some time. 
I was curious to see if I could make sculptural works in the same way that I made live-performance, starting with a scenario or situation and an embodied feeling rather than a visual reference image.
