PHEE JEFFERIES
We always see things, but we very rarely look at them. I love to analyse the world around me, considering the things that are so normal we don’t even think twice about them and how strange they really are. Through my work I try to encourage people to notice the weird and wonderful aspects of the human condition, and to embrace them. By purposefully taking things out of context the viewer is forced to reconsider what they are looking at and really focus on the objects form, drawing attention to the abnormality of it - like when you repeat a word so many times that it begins to feel strange and disconnected, and you wonder if it is even a word at all. Once you start then you begin to see absurdity in everything, and even the most mundane objects become full of a bizarre and nonsensical beauty, which makes life seem so much more exciting!
