Citrusituation

Knitted floorlamp 180cm high in bright orange and green
wool, fully workable. Fluorescent green, yellow and
green wool knitted chair.  

Both these pieces serve as an installation in the White

Room, but can be presented separately as sculptures.

I think the lamp is the most successful because it creates an arresting representation of a metal lamp in another context. The chair took the longest to complete and is really comfortable to sit on. There is a large orange cushion to cover the Lacanian(Lacan Jacques , "Out of the Blue", Time and Image, translated by Parveen Adams, Manchester University Press 2000) hole to the side of the piece, creating an interest of what is visible through it, normally ignored. There is also an element of play, with the desire to be tactile with the suggestive yellow and orange knitted soft forms.

I like my work to project happiness and fun.It's also important to me that my sculptures can continue to be of valuable function after making them.
