Spacial adventures in architecture and history with conceptual methods of presentation....

Through either a personal history or archival history, a reflection / projection / uncanny is created.

Works such as “The Merchandise Mart” series developed for the NEXT art fair 2009. Play with ideas of existence of a space, using the method of production ( An etching of The Merchandise Mart made from a reference image prior to the Fair. ) to look at the role of the artists as the element that eventually confirms the existence of the building through attending the fair and drawing first hand details of the building in red Biro over the etches as an act of confirming its existence.

The series was then presented in a temporary state allowing the works to be changed throughout the duration of the fair, allowing the viewer to witness the artists continued exploration.
