Turbocharged: launchpad to space

The cumbrous but evocative locomotive was the starting-point for this series of sculptures. Their earthy, industrial foundation however soon flew off the rails and into the stratosphere, their imposing but benign origins fusing with science fiction iconography. Monstrously large wheels and distended, lance-like pilots evoke aggression and willful carnage, while the fusion of inanimate machine and organic development suggests that these colossal forms may yet gain sentience.
