a new set of tambourines - they feel the right blend of childhood toy / marching beat / child soldier imagery and extend the idea of cultural brainwashing with the emphasis on learned behaviour in childhood - in this example of one the characters you can see the balance im trying to draw between the monoculture and the traditions of ancient scotland in the weaves of the garments inspired by angus mcphee - initially the work examines the child soldier - this being interesting as a child soldier is brainwashed to accept opposing cultural values to those taught by their "family" or heritage/culture - the weaves of angus begin to hold for me a power that matches these superbrand values - scottish child soldiers - adrift from their culture - searching for meaning - a lost generation
