This work was a response to the UK Government increasingly losing the trust of the UK people during the pandemic lockdowns, as ministers consistently delayed on making fundamental decisions, repeatedly made U turns on decisions, and repeatedly informed the public that their performance was extremely effective, relative to other countries. The table is balanced precariously on only one leg, given the broken trust of the public towards it government ministers and back benchers. The table covering is constructed using lead flashing tape in a grim and depressing grey colour, with the lead flashing hand cut to replicate the roofing design of the UK Houses of Parliament. The UK Government logo is also hand cut in lead flashing tape, but has been attached to the table top upside down to further highlight the broken trust which was generated during the lockdown periods.

Chris is a professional artist based in the UK, producing artwork including Drawing, Sculpture and Photography. His work investigates the relationship between Humans and Creativity / Innovation. It is often informed by exploring ideas of increasing transitions and states of flux caused by rapidly growing volumes of change, and the resulting typical current responses to this, which demand constant creative and innovative human responses. It is also informed by exploring human responses to creativity and innovation, which come in many forms, and which appear to transform and translate subtly over time. Works can sometimes be a response to a range of potential triggers, capturing his immediate personal reactions to a wide range of contemporary events, found objects, materials, words and phrases, concepts and places and people he encounters. Chris attempts to combine his personal reactions, commentary and resulting storylines, with experimentation on how to effectively visually represent them, embedding this within the materiality of the artworks themselves. This often includes using found object deconstruction and re-purposing/recycling techniques, which challenge the current use or typical representations of the chosen physical objects or concepts. When existing objects, concepts or ideas are deconstructed or questioned, and then uniquely combined and reconstructed, they can convey very different and powerful images and messages.
