Born out of urban unease, a parasitic swarm of kinetic sound sculptures infest the gallery. Growing on You is made from accordion parts, plastic tubing, motors and wooden armatures. The objects cling to the walls in an interconnected web that surrounds the viewer in a cacophony of automated musical sighs.

Reflecting on the soundscapes of urban centres, where the drone of construction and development is constant, the installation is both aurally sensual and visually unnerving. It is in this space between spectacle and apprehension that viewers are invited to re-evaluate their relationship within continuous urban-development.
