Focus

Back from a trip to New England and taking advantage of the space I have cleared to focus on my recent sculptures. These new pieces are made out of 100% rubbish...(pronounced Roobish, just to give it class). It is my intention to create art which challenges our preconceptions and provokes thought and awakens the imagination. I have created a piece which is for the viewer to interact with by rearranging items in compartments. I am seeking assistance to put wheels and motorise these sculptures which is holding me up at the moment. I have enough work to fill a large gallery but so far no leads and no acceptance for a place to show and am considering to bring my art to the people with an interactive performance art show via the street.

I hope to have some decent photos up of these new works as soon as possible.
