curriculum pdf'my work investigates processes of change, the meeting of social worlds. It challenges the idea of the constancy of meaning as the sole prerogative of the artist. the works are meant to incite interaction: physical and intellectual to willing participants ready to rouse themselves from the stupour of passivity. the viewer is no longer a passive onlooker but becomes an interactive part of the work. the barrier between the onlooker and the work is transcended, thus permitting the meeting of different social worlds and the forging of many new meanings.'
