I use aspects of history, myth, and the idea of societal consciousness that inform these objects and their creation, to explore the ways in which these objects create a non-physical space for us to inhabit. Just as a book or film creates narrative realms we can exist in, so too do the objects we display around us activate similar levels of thought. When making, I consider our roots as manipulators of material, and I investigate the omnipresent need to actualize our ideas about the world, upon the world.
