Artist Statement:


I design conceptual products as political statements, communicating the need for alternatives, which contradict social trend and the quick fix. I examine philosophical, social, cultural, environmental, psychological and historical factors through my work. They determine the function, effect, material and aesthetic of my products, and have helped me in the formation of physical solutions to identified problems. My products use recognisable metaphors for relaying a particular point about an issue. Just as John Lennon mass-conveyed and encouraged independent thought from consumers through his music, I use product design. I have configured ways to make stylish domestic interior products, which stand for an ugly issue, desirable to the public. Through user / object interaction the consumer begins to understand consider the messages that have been built into the product through the aesthetic and function. The are a source of intrigue and enquiry and aim to be both visually pleasing as well as financially viable. In short, they create thoughtful, meaningful alternatives to the array of ‘designer’ household objects available to the fashion conscious mass consumer market.
