My practice delves into the cyclical and labor-intensive essence of work, intertwining sculpture and performance to investigate themes of motivation, futility, and societal paradigms. Performances such as Lay/Unlay (2022) and installations like Would You Like Fries With That? (2020) juxtapose humor against endurance, critiquing hyperconsumption and power dynamics. Operating from Assembly House in Armley, I employ tools and meticulously rhythmic actions to create immersive works that engage both the physical and conceptual. My work reframes mundane labor as symbolic and monumental, inviting audiences to consider the unseen physical and psychological costs of our work-oriented society.

My work centers on the cyclical patterns of labor, the commodification of time, and the societal structures that define our relationship with work. Drawing on personal experience and industrial motifs, I explore how labor shapes identity, often through repetitive tasks that blur progress with futility.

Performances like Lay/Unlay (2022) embody this duality—offering a meditative exploration of perpetual creation and deconstruction. Using bricks, soundscapes, and deliberate movements, the work immerses audiences in the rhythm of labor, highlighting both its transformative and exhaustive qualities.

Themes surrounding the frequently overlooked human toll of hyperconsumption also surface, as exemplified in Would You Like Fries With That? (2020). This piece interrogates corporate imagery and the perpetual churn of production and consumption, reframing disposable artifacts as emblematic relics that highlight the tension between polished consumer branding and the unvarnished reality of industrial labor.

Pieces like Sand Shifters Vol.3 (2020) delve into endurance and uniformity, reflecting on the worker's role within the larger societal machine. By presenting labor as repetitive and monumental, my practice encourages audiences to question the constructs of productivity and value in their own lives.

Ultimately, my work endeavors to elevate the mundane into the profound, offering both a critique and celebration of the resilience inherent in labor. It seeks to challenge perceptions of work while honoring its enduring rhythms and the human stories entwined within them.
