trade city

July 2009

The work presented by exocet, for Trade City, deals with re-evaluation and ­progression through modification. The transformation of an existing object, image or design alludes to dormant potential and presents a new set of possibilities. The work also questions physical and conceptual boundaries, and in the context of Trade City, comments on what can be achieved by operating inside, outside and in between them.
