My work explores the cyclical and labor-intensive essence of human effort, using sculpture and performance to critique societal constructs surrounding work, value, and identity. Drawing from personal experiences and industrial motifs, my practice reframes mundane labor as symbolic and monumental, highlighting its transformative yet often futile rhythms.
Through meticulously crafted works - ranging from durational performances to large-scale mechanical sculptures -I juxtapose endurance and humor to interrogate hyperconsumption, power dynamics, and the commodification of time. I employ tools, rhythmic actions, and industrial aesthetics to blur the boundaries between creation and deconstruction, inviting audiences to consider the overlooked physical and psychological costs of labor in a work-oriented society.
Operating from Assembly House in Leeds, I create immersive experiences that center on the resilience and endurance inherent in labor, challenging perceptions of progress and futility while honoring the human stories interwoven with our collective rhythms of toil and rest.
