Lot Essay

"By appropriating ordinary objects, sounds and concepts, his pieces function as catalysts to our cognitive consciousness. They turn on our collective memory to a private space of contemplation where we are pushed to question the reality of our everyday lives... The sculptures are made out of nylon (parachute material) incorporating a neon light and air compressor that allows them to deflate and inflate reiterating the cycles of life and exploring social issues."
