This series of work uses maps, either literally or conceptually, to inform the use of surface space. Mapping also refers to using projections on three dimensional surfaces. The series includes installations, drawings, projections and sculptures.

2 days dust
This installation was done in conjunction with Ps2, Belfast. For two days, the 25 square metre gallery was a dust storm.

Stacks
Stacks are a staple of my work, and is where my current sculptural practice began. These pieces are built from found objects and require minimal adjustment to those objects. They are typically made from victorian-style furniture and glass. This series is related to Victorian architecture that is typical of Belfast and can exude a sort of haughtiness.

Containments
Containments grew out of an interest in Pansychism, which is the concept that all objects have a sort of rudimentary consciousness. These sculptures treat some materials as animals and other materials as cages. Central to this series is duplicity of the container as both something that holds back and also supports that which is contained.
