"My practice is concerned with societal trends, mass culture, communication and the construction of meaning. I collect and appropriate from a wide range of sources including television, books, newspapers, magazines and the Internet in an often crude attempt to define, mock, or celebrate the sociological status quo. 


My multi-disciplinary and participatory projects border on the absurd, referencing craft and hobbies, online culture, entertainment and the banal. In each case the medium is dictated by the subject, employing decontextualisation and the appropriation of disparately sourced material to produce a dialogue or tension in the work."

There's some pictures of the MA show on Artfridge here.

My Critical Research Paper Blog

I had to write a paper for the MA, which I decided to turn into a blog. The research question I set myself was "Collaboration and Appropriation on the Internet: Can Artists Really Share?"

Both drafts the comments and links are included in the project.

It can be found here: http://searchingresearch.blogspot.com

Please feel free to comment, as I wouldn't mind continuing the feedback loop. Thanks to everyone so far that helped!

I showed a version of the video piece I made from news correspondent clips, along with the clay paper-ball.
Thanks to Katharine for the photos.

Falling... continued

Flock (Iceland 2009)

These were made in Iceland and were intended to be shown beside the other 'Flock' work I made but never quite made it. They are made using sunlight to bleach the sugar paper and I exposed these ones for the duration of my month long residency. The reason I'm putting them up on the blog now is I went back to this method last year and made a series of falling women that I'll put up next. Having said that, the idea passed and I forgot all about them until yesterday when I found them all filed away.
