Note to future self:
Let the words, work and easter eggs here be a reminder, that every line of inquiry bright and dull, is a work in progress waiting to be assembled, reassembled and reconfigured until it starts to make sense again, before it doesn’t.
Formally intersecting at areas of previous experience- architecture, theatre and design, the work draws strongly from an artistic and creative practice, inherited from a large family of animated performers, unreliable storytellers, meticulous book-keepers and compulsive assemblers.
