Statement

From the series ‘they speak in tongues unknown’.


The abject and taboo are parts of our bodies and societies that are often not spoken about, but are intrinsically present. They hold a fascination as something that is disgusting, intriguing and even beautiful. However we react to the abject and taboo it is without a doubt compelling and a part of our lives we can never escape.

‘they speak in tongues unknown’ marries attraction and discomfort through the juxtaposing imagery which is viewed as one collective work.
