These works are all digital assemblages which are printed onto fine art paper and hung in reclaimed frames. The assemblages are all carefully constructed compositions which discuss concepts impacted by anthropocentric activity: the military industrial complex, the quality of our food and contemporary internet culture just to name a few.&nbsp;

Printed Substrates

A series of reclaimed substrates which have been engraved using a CNC laser cutter. Through this process, I aim to clarify the existence of the Anthropocene, by ascribing signs which gesture toward anthropocentric activity; onto the physical by-products of human consumption. &nbsp;Artworks (From Left to Right) &nbsp;Adonis (You&#39;ve met with a terrible fate haven&#39;t you). 2023-4. 48.5 CM x 69.5 CM.The Sin Pigs. 2024. 49 CM x 14.2 CM.Luxury Closet Living. 2024.

Engraved Substrates

2024&nbsp;Dimensions Variable.&nbsp;Laser Engraved OSB Panel. Gold LeafDepicting various scenes of historical and future anthropocentric activity, the Gaia altarpiece serves as the connective tissue for my wider practice. It is also a shrine dedicated to the angel of history, a character evoked frequently within my work. The angel of history, borrowed from the work of Walter Benjamin, is a figure whom is emblematic of our relation to the destructive cacophony of human history. &nbsp;&quot;Where we perceive a chain of events, he sees one single catastrophe which keeps piling wreckage and hurls it in front of his feet.&quot; (Benjamin. 1940). &nbsp;Within my practice, the angel of history acts as a prism, a lens through which one can reconfigure past, present and future to visualise anthropocentric activity.&nbsp;In a performance piece in February 2024, I sacrificed a series of artworks to the shrine, to mark the beginning of my career as a professional artist.&nbsp;
