It's a paradox to attach a functional object, such as a rudder, to a building: the sense of frustration in thwarted direction or motivation. Familiar objects, like keys, have an emotively metaphoric quality for me; I'm fascinated by the oxidising process and the acceptance of loss in the repetition of defunctionalisation and recontextualisation. I work with stimulus:response situations, locally found materials, keys - people collect and give them to me; and porcelain, creating installations in relation to the immediate environment.
