Buttress The Well Armed Proletariat (Rage) Gaze Variations, ExubeRANT Drum Major Confetti Staffs and Double Sided Soft-Focus Peripheral Batons, are tools for envisioning, enacting, and celebrating alternative perspectives; in this case, all those unheard voices to the fore.

These sculptures were used as props for UNFURL: a lucid science fiction opera, produced in collaboration with Justin Francis Kennedy for the 11th Berlin Biennale (2020), and funded by Canada Council for the Arts.
