Using purchased objects in the work alludes to notions of trade and consumerism. The objects I have chosen are associated with growth and nourishment through their domestic roles as planters or food receptacles and so on. Trade and consumerism are also forms of growth. In some regards the work is an attempt to reconcile disparate interpretations of the word “growth”.
