BACK to FRONT

Installation, 2011

Description

‘The household behind the net is as chaotic as usual, but the passageway felt like a metaphor for an idea pushed to its conclusion: a thought that has a will of its own and can cut through swathes of physical domestic demands and reach a satisfying end; a path through the mind too – all those interrupting thoughts put to one side as we focus on getting from the beginning of an idea and ruthlessly concentrate until its work is done.’
Victoria Rance from review on www.a-n.co.uk/interface.
