The questions that motivate my current and recent creative works revolve around social and institutional constructs. Specifically, how humyn beings are able to work together to accomplish goals beyond the capacity of the individual. Common themes include collective and individual growth, transnational corporate discourse, labour, globalised trade/-industry, sustainability, ecology and folklore. I am a keen student of the historical and contemporary effects/impact of such constructs on individual stakeholders, institutions as well as the social and environmental 'externalities' that it may cause directly and indirectly. I employ geometry, semiotics, and architectural installations as tools to explore these subjects, along with projections from fire, sunlight, electric light as well as digitally processed media and sound.
