“Reservation”Cowboy
and Indian - 2002
2.3m x 1.3m x 1m
steel, painted
“Making the Connection”, temporary exhibition,
Manningtree Train Station, Essex
Originally designed for either side of the station
platform the two suited commuters, who
pass each other daily on opposite sides of the
tracks, have suddenly broken out of their
daily routine. As cowboy and indian, they are locked
in a shoot out reminiscent of the wild
west. Manningtree is on the border between Essex
and Suffolk and the piece comments
on the issue of borders and the conflicts we witness
everyday.
