About Derek

The uncertainty of ‘reality’ and our search for ‘truth’ underpins most of what interests me in my art making. I comment on the structures, both physical and social, we create to investigate and provide explanations for who we are, where we are and where we are heading.
It fascinates me that in our contemporary world hardly anybody thinks about where our world comes from and what its fate is. The opinions we have are primarily determined by how we grew up and what the digital hegemony now tells us. It is sobering, for me at least, to realise that over the last century physics has discovered a world at the subatomic level that is not only more strange and alien than what we suspect, but more strange and alien than we can possibly imagine. My work deals with the uncertainty this knowledge invokes. In essence, I try to comment on the physical and social constructs, such as machines and myths which we create to explain 'truth'.
