COMMISSION
A small selection of commissioned works kicks off with the highly influential installation for Harvey Nichols, Knightsbridge: A Celebration Of 10 Years Of Food And Fashion in 2001. Tornadoes of china, glassware and cutlery topped by huge cakes, neon symbols and strobes placed this in the Top 5 displays of the year; the installation featured in The Face & Boy George performed within the windows. Neon vizors & insane millinery were also designed by THE DnA FACTORY MRSS, the fashion by Marc Jacobs.
Commission based on our sculpture ‘A Question Of Balance, Timing & Trust’, results in a rather cheeky bronze fountain, beautifully finished by the foundry, with two delicately placed adjustable spouts

Created for the Granada TV pilot, ‘Having It Off’. THE DOLLY PARTON SHRINE was applauded by the studio audience for its absolutely over the top nature and was briefly at the centre of a furore over an unexpected studio fire, needless to say the shrine was not the cause!
