This project draws inspiration from Forster's iconic literary reference, extending his notion of the uncontrollable machinery into a multi-dimensional exploration that transcends the textual realm and becomes a tactile, off-kilter and raw visual and auditory experience.  The sculptures, sound and surrounding elements mirror the complex narrative of agency's interaction with larger forces, inviting contemplation of how personal decisions can resonate across the fabric of society, reflecting the idea that humans influence the world around them, whilst at the same time, unwittingly setting in motion larger, often unstoppable forces that can determine the outcomes of their actions and ultimately shape the course of events.  The artwork resonates as an invitation to pause, to ponder, and ultimately, to embrace our potential to navigate the torrents of progress with an awareness of the fragility that accompanies it.
