My work expresses ideas that challenge our habitual perceptions of the world around us. The work sets out to attract and hold our attention as it expresses feelings for the natural world and the multi-faceted relationships we have with it. It is motivated by and responds to the provocation of things seen in passing. I begin by carefully selecting original objects for their associations, or more simply - because of their visual appeal. These objects are transformed through a casting process and subjected to further alterations before being assembled. The casting process itself, by acknowledging a potential for endless replication, directs attention to the common.
Through remaking and representation as an object for visual delectation the original object becomes a work of art. This process of transformation thus necessitates a redesignation of the original object. In this way, the original object is not original at all but simply the subject of the final work.
