Contemporary culture is an ever shifting set of rules, full of expectations and consumerist must haves. As we all naturally are immersed in society, my work studies the pre-existing material evidence of this in the fabric of our everyday lives. Further studying the rigid constructs that feed the society in which we live.

​

Domestic materials play a huge role in practical explorations that are undertaken. Objects, pre-acquired by society that have existed in their own right as a part of another person’s narrative allows a further study of cultures relationships with the materials they own. Through the practical explorations undertaken in the work, an insight into both a psychological narrative and a physical relationship can be formed.

​

My work focuses on the psychological affects that society and the objects we chose have upon our emotions and relationships with them and other people. In study of this relationship, my manipulation of everyday objects begins to challenge and strain this relationship and societies expectations of the performance of an object to which they have become accustomed.
