A large-scale indoor sculptural work The Disco Guillotine. The work is a 3m tall French Guillotine clad in an armoured skin of disco-ball mirrors, and is a discussion on the similarities between the rebellion of the common man against the decadent aristocracy of The Revolution and todays media driven celebrity obsessed society – where one minute we idolise someone only to tear them down the next.
