Uncomfortable in our own skins

Delighted that Throw Only To Alert Catcher at Gallery 333 was chosen by Alistair Fitchett to wrap up his 50/50 series on the Unpopular blog, not least because his thoughts about the work are so perceptive.  It's always gratifying to know someone 'gets' your work. Here's a sample:

"Here is art that exists uncomfortably within its own skin. Throw Only To Alert Catcher is art for whom that very discomfort is perhaps its most important quality. For whilst this is a work that explores relationships between the human and the non-human, its ultimate message is perhaps that any attempt to define such a relationship is doomed to at best discomfort and at worst abject (but glorious) failure."
