This work is a series of processes that positions my practice in relation to contemporary ideas.
It creates a fluid set of structures that explore the wonderful incoherence of multiplicity, and confronts two fundamental questions. What does it mean to know something? Do we have direct access to the real? Applying some ideas proposed by the speculative realists.

The framing devices are a form of distancing from the culture and discourse of art. It allows for a wide creative practice to be placed within the frame, but collectivises the work, and protects it from direct engagement with the paradigms of contemporary art. The images rather resemble an anthropologist's classification of a found creative output, with the different reference panels reflecting this taxonomy

In addition the form of presentation challenges ideas around the 'aura' of the unique work, scale as pure spectacle, and how the spectator engages with the work presented, particularly the process of reading in a gallery context.
