Referencing consumerist behaviour and exploring necessity and self-expression through the utilisation of vacuous material objects.
Choosing a product to promote parallel to a trendy new idea or concept by creating unconventional comparisons with oppositional objects and desirable aesthetic arrangements- provoking feelings of lust, dependency and disgust.
Drawing from semi-autobiographical memory and image associations to create a material language between product, present and ritual. Constructing a believable event, place and existence that is designed for inhabiting, tasting or trying on which you are prohibited to do so.
