Studio works

Edinburgh College of Art Degree Show 2008

Degree show statement

Exploring the ambiguity inherent in the nature of scale, the work presented for the ECA degree show 2008 was a selection of images and sculptural objects that attempt to confuse and confound our inbuilt distinction between the miniature and the gigantic.

Repositioning the viewer in relation to these objects, dictating viewpoints which are often imagined or inhibited, the works attempt to question the judgement and measurement of scale in relation to the human body. Physically presenting intangible and inaccessible spaces, the works become souvenirs of an imagined space; propped, leant and stacked.

Exposing the dialogue between the natural and the synthetic, each work highlights an imbalance between physicality and function, between presentation and construction, ultimately questioning the supposed boundaries between these pairs of terms.
