I create sculptures and installations that are informed by my readings of functional architecture and the undervalued landscapes they inhabit. The work addresses concerns of what place is and how it operates; what are the stories within the coexisting heterogeneity there? My interest lies in witnessing the intangible social dynamics of a place, and drawing attention to the unfixed and performative process through which places become, prompting a wider view of how places are manifested and the activities they give form to. The histories, conflicts, and risks that exist in overlooked places provide motivatation. Aiming to reveal this complicated and ambiguous space, the contingency and excess of the layered narratives, in order to provoke new ways of seeing. The work draws on social linkages over space, ways of questioning even when making a conclusion is uncertain, and reflections on the many possible outcomes to a place as it re-exists in different times and social contexts. Materiality is a significant concern. Using clay, a resonant material that, like places, is complex but fragile. Of the earth, and open to human shaping. I push the material's limitations, the weakness of raw clay and the structural integrity of the form. The sculptural result is an embodied experience, industrial yet precarious. Forms and colours are informed by the details of the place under investigation, but the lines of the completed form are energised by the dynamics of the story creating open, angular skeletons of association and resonance that question our place in the world.
