This work has also been an exploration into the use of recycled and found materials. The humble cardboard box in all its delightful banality and boringness is a material common to all. The magical gateway into childhood fantasies, cubby houses, castles and beyond to purely practical means of storage. Books, records, toys and forgotten memories all share this common home inside the box.
