This project stems from my struggles and coping mechanisms; visualising a pocket of space to retreat into, influenced by my love for history and the fantastical. Made of laser cut MDF, I hand painted each piece and constructed it in a way inspired by tunnel books.
Escapism can take many forms, for me its daydreaming of a world held stagnant in time. A World Away From Here, is a 3D space that stems from my mind, allowing you as the viewer to peak into where I hide and seek solace from. The bricks you are faced with are reminiscent of ruins, concealing a window into this hidden world. To endlessly wander ruins with evidence of existing life surrounding you, brings a comfort that even if you are alone someone has walked the same path as you have before. Leaving marks of hidden stories for you to forever interpret and unravel.
