The titles I'm not too sure how accurate they are - these images came off the net but I'll check and repost accurate information (correct titles and dates)
Wire Cot - this work is deceiving in that a crib is supposed to represent something safe for a child to inhabit - this piece is made of cold steel tubing and has no bottom save for some piano wire strung at the bottom - a tactile threat to the infant who if placed there would (suggestively) be sliced through the bottom.
Rubber Crutches- another unconventional piece: crutches are supposed to be supportive and not lax, collapsing and soft.
'Grater Divide'- screens are made with a huge cheese grater- what is really allowed through?
'Light at the End' - this piece is deceiving because usually the light at the end of the dark tunnel usually represents hope, rest, salvation, peaceful death - at the end of this dark room is light - but in the form of piping hot rods which would burn if you touched them
'Light Sentence'- a pun; light is usually has positive connotations but here it is shown shining through prison-like cages where chickens are brought to be kept then slain.
