THE POST-MOD-O-METER Rise and fall of the city sleeker - This kinetic brooch illustrates the highs and lows of the economy during the prime time of Postmodernism. ‘The self made businessman is represented by the well known 80’s game figure PAC Man – eating up the stock market. When the market is up the AT&A inspired liner is the correct way up on the stock market graph. However, when things take a tumble it can be recorded for all to see. Just like Black Monday in the 80’s the centre moves 360° taking us to current economic situation of we face today.
Insanity (Exhibited at V&A Museum London Oct 2010-Jan 2011) - Insanity whether losing your mind through one’s own actions or unwillingly due to medical conditions, considering media coverage of physical & mental handicaps prevalence to today. The creatures (magnetic) represent the immense constant unsettling aspect of mental health whether an addict itching for their next fix or a manic depressive, caged by their episodes. Care is needed to remove the pieces reflecting the recovery process it takes time otherwise things will fall apart.
Sensitive Chaos- tear drops
