----------------------------

Oliver Rafferty breaks down the methodology with which to make a work. Appropriating an object, altering its characteristics and transferring it to a world apart from its original intent, away from normal archive of references. The temporality of each of the works is heightened by their placement, no longer of consumption or appropriation but of both a languid and defined statement. Rafferty consistently stretches avenues of exploration through altering the standard use of and for the manmade material.
