‘Glut’ is an outpouring, a form of suturing, an emotional response to the recent death of my dog, factory farming, and our plastic oceans.
A ‘curtain’ of tentacular entrails, viscous bodily hybrids transformed, ‘Glut’ is seductive and disgusting. The materials (especially personal items) speak of past lives, loss, textiles, craft. In contrast, the organic forms symbolise death, violence, but also vulnerability and renewal - the duality of horror and tenderness.
