Auto door I, II, III

Auto door I, II, III is a work about inexplicable acts of violence set in Leeds. It situates the poetic work as a script from which to bodily scope or project the artist’s own form. The process holds three parts: Text (the Body), Photographic Image (the Index) and Video (the Voice). The text is a sculptural medium from which the body takes form. This is captured as photographic image, an index; she’s referenced. Finally, the video takes the body and the index, adds voice and the person is realised. To find her, you look for reference.

Chair I, II

Chair I, II, is a volumed work in the series For Reference.  Like Auto door I, II, III, Chair I, II situates the poetic work as a script from which to bodily scope or project the artist’s own form.  The text is a sculptural medium from which the body takes form. This is captured as photographic image, an index; she’s referenced. To find her, you look for reference.
