Artist Statement:
My recent work has been an investigation into the created object and the sounds that exist within it and occur around it or are mediated by the object. I treat sound as another material just the same as bronze or wood and incorporate it into the work. In a way, perhaps, giving a voice to the work. Here the object is the plinth, revered by many, hated by many and simply ignored by more. Poor work can be elevated by placement on a plinth and great work devalued. Yet it is a constant in many galleries and museums. Here I look at the plinth as the object, as the art work that it is more usually a signifier of. |
