"My work explores the relationship between consumerist fetishism and football chants. With influences as diverse as Camus and Miles Davis, new synergies are generated from both mundane and transcendent discourse. Ever since I was a pre-adolescent I have been fascinated by the essential unreality of relationships. What starts out as vision soon becomes corrupted into a hegemony of power, leaving only a sense of failing and the possibility of a new synthesis. As shifting derivatives become undefined through frantic and undefined practice, the viewer is left with a statement of the edges of our future."
- Nicholas Forker
