Research explores objecthood, the built environment, and affect through interventions in architectural spaces. Notable projects include the Stanley Picker Gallery's spatial reconfiguration and the "UR Feeling" series.
Recent exhibitions and publications (2012-2017) engage with themes like cultural artifacts (Carlton bookcase, Louis Ghost Chair), environmental affect, and institutional critique. These works were featured at Tate Britain, Camden Arts Centre, and Firstsite Colchester.
His 2015 artist's book (commissioned by Film and Video Umbrella) and 2010 book section "Incidents of Mirror-Travel in Yucatan and Elsewhere" demonstrate cross-disciplinary research spanning design history, cultural geography, and theoretical frameworks.
