The work is a translation of fantasy triggered by everyday confusions and pleasures. It revels in the co-existence of contraries, of surface and depth, of rational and irrational, of meaning and meaningless.
I work primarily with reclaimed material and am interested in fetish and low-fi glamour.
In my work there are slippages between types of things, between drawings and objects: My types of things exist as translations of sensation. They are illogical and pleasurable.
