“Secret”

Pigeons made from casts of Victorian Bee Hive and Fluted clay pipe bowls mounted upon contemporary plastic packaging base with 1950’s thimble feet.

The discarded object, whether it be a vintage domestic item, a mudlarked find loaded with meaning, even a piece of plastic packaging are all relevant to my process; to make comment on mass consumerism within contemporary society. I employ the found object by first casting it to make a press mould. My Flatbacks narratives can be a time consuming process, made of anything up to fifty separate elements.
