Royal College of Art London / FINDS & FAKES
These works from 1993 critically reflect on a world increasingly shaped by humans. They draw on the aesthetics of found industrial relics of rusty iron and steel to reflect on the changes we are facing through biotechnology and genetic engineering in agriculture and medical laboratories around the world. This work originates from the idea of being able to unearth the future. It's about how we perceive and interpret the products of industrialised society and how we define the relationship of the man-made environment to the natural world. These pieces were first time presented in London at the Royal College of Art as the Master Thesis - welcome to the Anthropocene.
