"I find toys, particularly broken toys, a fascinating medium for assemblage both for their colour and shape and their connotation: hues so bright they become repellent, images so stylized they exclaim the mundane. Their use represents the invalid activities, or child's play, that has so addled serious society. I've tried to approach this series from several different sides, taking toys out of their original context and using htem almost as if they were bizarre humour, with whiffs of surrealism and a few light bulbs."
