My
work explores human behavior, in particular group dynamics
and social isolation. Using imaginary landscapes and anthropomorphic
beings I create a theatre where human characteristics are
exposed.
I construct imaginary worlds where hierarchies, factions,
prima donnas, leaders and minions coexist in environments
that provide a glimpse of the future: a microcosm of the workplace,
the staffroom and the boardroom.
The
playground is often a source of inspiration especially as
games and tribal loyalty provide a framework for exploring
human nature. Further inspiration includes ‘A Midsummer
Night's Dream’ which offers insight into the complexity
of human behaviour where trickery, deception, humour and
mischievousness and can be observed.
