IMPRESSIONABLE - Silicone, foam, hair, kiln-formed and mirrored glass, 2021

Impressionable is a visual manifestation of the ways in which our subconscious mimics and absorbs those around us for means of “survival”. We imitate miniscule mannerisms during conversations, our accents and voices change when we are in foreign environments and our personality alters slightly with the addition of a new friend. Our mind is constantly working to make us “fit in”, often without our conscious self's realisation. With this in mind, is it possible that anyone is truly original, or are we all just fragmented reflections of each other?
