In Kaccoufa’s work Genetic Manipulation, hubristic recklessness, and toys of the future are structured within a ‘post-utopian’ moment. The Cyber Flora sculptures comprising three-dimensional steel wire flowers resemble fantastical molecular models. The Bear sculptures with Griffith wings and octopus legs are genetically modified creatures of polyester resin and aluminum foil rather than cuddly teddies. Bringing together undifferentiated- technical practice, poetic intuition and the grotesque, his works critically engage with the speculative idealism of twentieth century utopianism.
He lives and works in London and studied at the Royal Academy Schools, and Central St Martins. |

Tobi Deeson’s work plays on the promise of nature, however on closer inspection the flowers are fake, mass produced from cheap bedsheets. ‘Tobi’s work clearly references family history and personal relationships but avoids sentimentality and narcissism and instead evokes a cultural memory in a bed sheet, and a reminder that it is the shared personal and practical details of everyday life lived, in which social life, change and personal endurance are found’.Alongside her practice she teaches at The Brit School for Visual and Performing Arts and is on the Board of Directors for Transition Gallery.Solo Exhibitions:2006, 'May to September', 1000000mph. |

I am interested in the notion of the world as a stage, where human activity creates a tale of contradictions and mystery.My paintings are a product of certain kind of negotiation between the meaningful and the absurd, the personal and the objective perception of the world, which appears to be in a struggle with its reality.I am fascinated by the role that a space can play in the development of a certain story, which is at a point of its culmination. Solo shows:08/04/05 to 23/04/05 “Basecamp” Spitalfields, London
08/00-09/00 “The Conway Hall” Holborn, London |
