Work 2017 – 2024
10,000 Years is a series of staged experiences which combine lifesize likenesses of vehicles with video and sound.
The viewer is invited to take a seat in the train, plane, lift, carriage, limousine or hovercraft and watch films that take you through landscapes of alternative ways of seeing and feeling.
The installations are revealed to me in a dialogue of intuition and exploration. Not letting the head take over, keeping the heart open to connect with others in a way that conscious language and thought can’t.
It’s the things that are not said but are felt.
