Confronting the Truth

In this installation, I use my autobiography utilising text to manipulate an environment and objects identified with childhood. These objects are removed from the ‘familiar, cute and safeness of innocence,’ to a cold exterior that considers the role of the child as the learner and the parent as the teacher.

The environment sets up a semiotic dynamic between the audience and object, audience and artist, allowing them to interact with these signifiers, removing them from the simple state of viewing to one of experiencing and investigating an artwork.

I hope this encourages viewers to reflect on their own life experiences to inform their understanding of my artwork, to connect on a personal and intimate level, and possibly to inform and challenge pre-conceived perceptions.
