The true secret of happiness lies in taking a genuine interest in all the details of daily life in elevating them by art.

Rebuilding my ‘pylon idol’ for ‘Post Artist’s’ ‘Away Day’ in Wandle Park, Colliers Wood this weekend.
This is my piece ‘teleology’ pre-installation at the ICA. I rather liked it on the floor in it’s shroud. The decision making processes were really exciting of how and where to install the work. I went for a disruptively low and left placing within my space. I managed to negotiate to keep my rusty nails for attaching them to the wall. I really loved the shadows the piece cast on the stark white wall.
