Description:
This installation explores three main elements originally stemming from the concept of life.


The concept of life leads to a metaphor of life=fairground. This has been divided into three subsidiary elements: oil, machines and food. This collage of images, within the environment of the installation, is designed to stimulate an emotional state in the viewer.


This emotional state should allow people to see 'chaos' in all known phenomenon in both its subjective and objective manifestations. Graham Manley, Tony Royd, Jeffrey Said.
