Peter Ellis
“I am more interested in what I don’t know than what I do and am particularly intrigued in the often transgressive overlap
between various disciplines where demarcation and contention make new challenges. I work with everyday stuff excavating ironic and formal
relationships between the functions of objects, their histories and metaphoric shadows.”
