WARNING FOR CANDLES
You are now approaching an area where wild candles are common, beware of great smells and cozy atmospheres. This is a sign made for Nhoj - the candlemaker on the back of Valentia Island, Co. Kerry.
DICETOWER
I built a dice tower so I never have to roll my dice again like some loser without a dice tower. Well, apart from that little distance in the beginning into said dice tower.
SWORDS FOR DEIRDRE
When I was little I gave my Auntie Deirdre a wooden sword for Christmas. I didn't realise she has had it by her front door ever since - to protect herself from evil spirits and wicked men. At one point I think it was used to brace a plant, but I'll overlook that. So I made Deirdre a new, stronger, superior sword - to protect herself from evil spirits and wicked men.
STEPSTOOL
A little stool, or a pall as it's called in Swedish, created during my time in Ireland earlier this year. I really love sitting on those @ikea stools, but the only @ikea in the republic of Ireland is a 5 hour one way drive from Valentia Island. The @ikea stool also lacks a third step.
Created using the wooden frame from the couch we sat on as kids and spare wood from a window sill.

THE FALL OF MAN
This is a "sculpture" I made whilst studying environmental ethics, I chose to focus on the concept deep time, and quickly realized that humanity is nothing but a virus on the face of the earth, when we humans inevitably go extinct the planet will slowly but surely flourish once again.
SNAIL
This was amongst the first projects I did at HDK, it shows the simple life of a snail and the hardships of being a little guy in a big world. I wanted to work in 3D without involving video, creating a sort of comic strip. Beneath you can find a few excerpts of the project.
A POTRAITO OF MY FATHER
Being that my Father is Irish I found no better root vegetable to capture his essence and persona than a potato, sometimes you just have to embrace the joke. I present to you the potato portrait.
CURSE OF THE COLLECTOR
A photographic composition of a collection of paraphernalia I gathered together in my childhood home.
