"Whatever examines the near future in a world that is digitised and mapped. It is a sculpture of a disenfranchised youth living in a cyber world, his existence depending on technology. The work uses ‘organic data', taken from life and digitised by a scanning process. I manipulate the data with digital tools then prepare it for 3D thermal plastic printing. The many 3D pieces are assembled and hand finished." (Artist's statement, 2012)
