This piece is about how we remember and record things and our increasing reliance on technology to store so much of our important information. How many of us store memories on phones, hard drives or in one of the many clouds? What happens when the technology gets damaged, lost, or becomes outdated? What if something apocalyptic happens to our civilisation, how would future explorers understand the ways we lived? The work consists of a fragmented computer drive partially embedded in resin, with a gloss painted frame. The resin is yellowed to resemble ageing. The frame has been painted multiple times with thick, roughly applied paint, like an old window frame.The work is ready to hang and make your wall space a talking point.

Most recently Stephen's work has been featured in "And Now For The Good News (works from the Annette & Peter Nobel Art Collection)", at the Pera Museum, Turkey. Born in 1962 Stephen is a child of post war popular culture. His creativity began in '67 when his father set up a photographic darkroom in a cupboard under the stairs. There they made primitive b&w pictures, and Stephen hasn't stopped creating since. His work has been collected by clients around the world, including two astronauts and a circus entrepreneur. He would like his work to give pleasure, entertain and create discussion.
