In this project I look at our relationship to Nature and how it is expressed in western material culture. I propose that this relationship is ambivalent and paradoxical and seek means to make this evident. I look to 18th century gardens for a historical and cultural context and to Rene Descartes for an explanation as to how this ambivalence came to be. This is the work of someone who thinks too much, makes cynical and wide sweeping assumptions about human behavior and has access to a workshop 7 days a week for 2 years.
