2009. Vinyl rubber. 51 x 24 x 24 cm.
The Incarnate series began with variations and elaborations of a basic undulatory form, much like musical variations on a theme. This base form is a proxy ( or idealised) human body, and the variations aim to catalogue possibilities for the human body considered as an object, both in terms of its constituent materials and their associated properties (an idea that relates to the medieval system of ‘Humours’), but also in the body’s role as a symbol or prop in fetish, myth and propaganda.

2009. Patented reactive concrete paving. Dimensions variable.
1st Prize: BCA Innovations in Concrete & 2nd Prize, International Concrete Design Competition. A paving slab whose appearance and texture change in response to pedestrian traffic, creating a visual and tactile record that adds functionality and character. Every pedestrian becomes a participant, inscribing the history of that space’s use, and creating a form of intuitively understood signage.
