Exploring the conflicting and troubling relationship between childhood innocence and the architecture of war has been a consistently developed theme throughout my work. Once attending a school built on top of a WWII German Gun Battery, I aim to highlight elements of my personal experience; the strangeness, absurdity and contradictions of a place marked by war- stripped bare concrete carcasses left abandoned for children’s play after the real warring. The work in Concrete Jungle is the beginning of a new body of work that features the more illicit relationship between young people and derelict buildings; graffiti, illegal parties, sex and drugs.
