‘All Signs Point To’ explores the semiotics of recognisable public infrastructure. The work will deconstruct everyday urban objects and reconstructs them using their core base elements, abstracting them from the public realm. Focusing on literal street signage, a way of directing the flow of everyday life, the work will be an aesthetic celebration of some of the cities most banal objects. It is a somewhat playful but deconstructive take, removing them from the realm of public space and reconstructing them within the context of the gallery, questioning the nature and function of the objects versus the function of an ‘Art Object’.
This show will be in preparation for an exhibition as part of Edinburgh Art Festival.
