Questioning ‘Art’, wrestling with the dilemma of what ‘Art’ is and what it means, questioning the relevance it has and the apparent irrelevance that art often has to the individual. The works come together in serendipitous experiments that incorporate drawings, objects and words that tend ultimately to be failures in their absurdity, doomed from the outset. The works playfully critique the pseudo-intellectual approach to art that is often employed as a mechanism of rationalization to works of art without full understanding.
