This work was exhibited in the Handwise V exhibition at Newcastle Art Space gallery from 9 - 26 August 2012.
the balancing act reflects the balancing act most of us face in contemporary life and our struggle to achieve an equilibrium between work, life and family. There is deliberate tension created within the work. At any stage the chair stack could collapse or topple, the work is fragile, yet resilient at the same.
The humble stool is a re-occurring element in a number of my works and represents time spent labouring and creating within the domestic environment.
