Imaginary Perception; card and scratched perspex, 28x30x28 cm, 2011
The inspiration for this piece came from Henri Bergson's idea of Pure Perception: a working of the senses in which memory is not included. There would be no difference between the objective reality of images that enter the brain and our perception of them. The piece is an attempt to develop a paradoxical language which equalises the thing and its representation, a form which is an idea and a physical object at the same time.
