LOVE OBJECTS aim to create a clear space

To allow the viewer a temporary 

sense of perspective over their life

In the fast pace of modern living

Bringing the viewer into the present

through a visual dialogue 

with the particular piece of work

In other words 

a space to be.....Out of time

These LOVE OBJECTS have been 

moulded in a very sensual way

Gently teased into existence

They have grown over long 

incubation periods into individuals

With unique characters 

implying a sense of personal need

As they are inanimate 

they are only embodiments of love

Though they reciprocate 

through their own existence

Hopefully love conquers anger

Which always seems to emerge

As if it were a lava in the blood

The title of each work relates 

closely to the concepts dealt with by it

Such as the image SEED

An object of sinless potential

Containing the complex creative 

instructions of the organism

The seed and its propagation 

are a primal human motivation

Does one love the carrier of ones' 

seed, or the donor, 

because ones' seed has found a home

Thereby a part of the individual 

and also the race will live on

Does self love require all 

survival strategies needed to be acted on

Is love necessary to further racial survival

Could there be a love gene?
