Booby Traps

Inspired by the jungle action movie Predator, the most recent works are booby traps.  Dysfunctional in essence through their ominous forms, clearly delineated triggers, and intense colors or patterns, the sculptures become ridiculous objects of menace.  Booby traps are typically used on land as a psychological threat in non-combat areas and are concealed through camouflage or by sabotaging an everyday object. The name itself implies that only a fool or booby would actually activate the trap, as in Predator, where the alien is eventually defeated through a number of very basic entrapments.
