'For me, the most spectacular moments of thought were created by a collection of plates.
A nostalgic medium usually created in ceramics, but in this case recreated in paper­mache
in the hands of Maslen and Mehra, they are transformed into a sinister community
reflective tool addressing the political, cultural and moral decisions we make and
how they may be addressed as historical artefacts or moments in time. Almost mocking
the way in which we now live compared to our past, they highlight our obsession with
money, power and possessions.'
