David Marchant
My work embraces technology and also questions it, touching on current issues in which the “super information highway" rules. My work speaks about current issues within a postmodern society. I continually deliberate about how seduced I am by this condition, of which I am, unavoidably, a product. The only aspect of my life which seems to be real is the way my children play with objects and transform them into alternative subjects, with the ability to avoid their original purpose. This is where I gain inspiration to produce my own work, using fun recognisable objects and reworking them to portray complex current issues.
Some aspects of my work have lead to one off performances which question identity and challenge possible public oppression.
