Head Cases – 2011-2012
What keeps us awake at night? This series of ten sculptures explores the worries and thoughts that interrupt that full night’s sleep. Certainly our minds are active during the daylight hours but it is during the hours of darkness when these thoughts run out of control. Should we just get up and wrestle them into a calmer state so that a restful sleep can take place – or just toss and turn? Perhaps putting them into these sculptural forms will ease the tension.
