The work I’m showing as part of New Mills Festival is a series of soft sculptures I made under the heading

‘Too Many Happy Meals’.

Using toys, given as free gifts to entice children to eat at fast food outlets, I scaled up the small toys and using a variety of cheap and cheerful fabrics I made a series of sculptural works.

The sculptures are intended as a critique on capitalism.
