The necessity of the manufactured and a desire for the hand-made.
The relationships between fabrication, mass and space are an everyday experience. My work takes a very direct and physical approach to a space, its structure and a material. Sculptural works become abstracted as I construct, alter and deconstruct. It is a play between man-made objects and an inability to achieve this by hand.
In a world where we are surrounded by an abundance of everyday objects, manufactured and finished; the physicality of the object, its nature and uniformity provokes questions. My work, which at first seems to attempt to answer these, fails. There are no real answers but only the need to create and to add to the existence of objects.
