52 Weeks (of looking at the news)

With Iman Mahdy. Interim Show, Goldsmiths MFA, July 2026
Kinetic sculpture, image fragments, ash. 

A collaborative kinetic sculpture, image fragments from a year of news, and ash from each week's news images. 

The wooden box holds a spring motor.  Wound up, it turns the weaving around the box, shifting light around the room.
 
The ongoing work with news imagery shows making by unmaking - fragmenting the images and burning them - as a way of inviting beauty and animism in the absence of material integrity.
