California Dreaming

The hour between night and dawn ... when most people die, sleep is deepest, nightmares are most real. It is the hour when the sleepless are haunted by their worst anguish, when ghosts and demons are most powerful. "The hour of the wolf is also the hour when most babies are born". Ingmar Bergman

Beneath the surface

Every year thousands of tourists flock to the tiny island of Santorini to enjoy a relaxing holiday in the sun. At the same time a transient work force travels to the same island to work the holiday season serving the tourists. This project explores the contrasting relationship that these transient populations have with this otherwie inhospitable volcanic island. "Look beneath the surface; let not the several quality of a thing nor its worth escape thee". Marcus Aurelius Antoninus.

Causality

This project explores the idea that there is an indexical link between our individual activities at a local level and the undeniable changes taking place with our environment. It is easy to consider climate change a distance, eroding glaciers are far away from most peoples daily lives. The work invites the viewer to consider whether the cause and solution lies with each of us individually rather than the governments that are supposed to represent and protect us.  "the difficulty is to persuade the human race to acquiesce in its own survival". Bertrand Russel.
