STATEMENT
Uncommon goods hide in plain sight of the mundane, revealing the mechanisms that resist my homogenised surroundings, following the homespun until it becomes sublime. Favourite motives hide in objects and venues with often pre-ordained meanings or irresistible purposes. Picture frames and porcelain dolls, gift shops and roller coaster rides – stripping these of their designated roles and familiar contexts turns them into ambiguous misfits. Their weakened conceptual guides make for a neutral space designed to reflect the observer intimately rather than, for lack of a better word, reality itself.
I begin by seeking out sites where sentimental markers of a home undergo distortion and raise a feeling of displacement and lean on traditional materials to uphold the digitalised circumstances under which the work is sometimes produced. Both automated computer-controlled production tools and their preceding hands-on printmaking processes appear in my practice to acknowledge the imminent layers at hand – tireless iteration can lead to the ultimate one-off and repetition stimulates difference.
