  • Everthing Must Go, 2020

    This was a really fun one to make. The rack was an artifact of the capitalist system, made obsolete. I resented its presence on my street, yet I suppose I also felt sorry for it. And I sensed its opportunity. What can I say, I can’t hold myself out of this system. The logic for…

  • What would you do with an apple green sales rack that had clearly seen better days?

    Well here’s what I’d do. I’d take a photo of it as if it was a museum-destined object, measure and record its vitals as if it were a patient on a guerney with cascading symptoms, then start the remodel like it was a kitchen with asbestos linoleum floors – carefully. And so I went, layer…

  • A/US opens this week

    As a part of this show I’d like to introduce a new work: Everything Must Go. I found this green sales rack back in March, as I was heading to my local cafe to have lunch with a friend, which turned out to be our last lunch before lockdown. I remember talking to her about…

  • Chill time

    My lockdown has been… eventful. In the small mercies column, it’s lucky we couldn’t go on the holiday we had booked. My father-in-law passed away last weekend after falling ill 6 weeks prior (of non-virus related causes). Visitation has been severely restricted, but in a stroke of luck his partner of 25 years was by…
