I Want To Swing On An Invisible Swing takes place in a very adult setting: an office. Wearing a pair of size 16, cross-dresser, red-patent leather shoes, my legs are captured dangling from an oversized office chair, recreating the childhood sensation of swinging one’s legs from a normal sized chair.
My work explores the child within, the playfulness of the everyday and our impulses to do silly things.
