In All Work and No Play I explore the place between play and intrigue, a seam that has provoked me in sculpture and writing since my earliest working days.

The beast of burden awaits a lift , the rat labors to get to a place of play, any breath of wind rocks the rabbit into rest, but he refuses to rock a child as a spring-rider should.
