Urban Totems
Much of my work as a visual artist deals with the identity of contemporary urban cultures. My points of departure are their materials, sounds, language, symbols and rituals, which I recontextualise. I arrived at the totem as a form for exploring these ideas.
Can I give a totem a new language and a new identity in the canon of modern sculpture?
