Using architectural theory as a point of departure,my work explores the permeabilities between the body,complex emotional states and architectural spaces. I am interested in the sculptural idea of the room as a container or vessel,which objects and emotions can pour in and out of and drain,leak or overflow. At the same time I am interested in the status of the body itselfas a container, where the skin is a membranethat holds us together. I make fetish like objects, which inhabit a dark architectural spacethat uses ideas of apotropaic magic that can defend, protectand constrain the body
