| My work aims to encourage critical
thinking through the study of progressive knowledge. By researching the
thought processes that people go through, i look for playful provocative
puzzles designed to draw upon the complexities of science, quantum physics
and control methods like money, religion and how i can reference the effect
it has on people in society.. i predominately use discarded materials as it
helps towards a cleaner environment but also oil paint, mechanical devices,
and subliminal imagery. It is here i also find myself exploring complex
layers of the higher self, where secret meanings are hidden within the fabric
of unchartered quantum power and connections within the subconscious mind.
The subjects often speak to me and I just let them in. Commercialism and
subtle manipulation often feature in my work too. I tend to create a
collection of work relating to a certain theme. I would like to create a
piece that revolves (literally) around societies methods of commercial
manipulation via subliminal messaging. To the lengths of which capitalists
are prepared to go by employing secretive ways of manipulation subliminally,
I hope to convey with a smiling clock face.. entitled “Ten to Two”
a way of being able to write the wording “Please buy me” in the
grinning mouth. (Very tounge in cheek) All watch shops and clock shops in
every city and town worldwide use this hidden manipulation.. a method
mirroring the ghostly and underhand ways capitalists take advantage of
innocent people. The image I will attach is a prototype that conveys the
concept. |
