ARTISTS STATEMENT:

"Fixed in time, these totems of man and bird are a memento mori, symbolic reminders of mortality.

Rudimentary amorphous forms wrapped in plaster and concrete are imbedded with ceramic shards from the domestic and the everyday, recounting a lost archeology.

These are constructed hybrid forms united by bright artificial colour, which mimics a synthetic reconstruction of nature.

These objects commemorate time held still."
