I consider myself to be an observer, a watcher on the lookout for anything unexpected.
— Polly Ewens

1980 - 1990

I reflect on domestication and the experiences of animal inhabitants within a world of human determination.

 

1990 - 2000

Inventing creatures that do not exist placed in environments that often feel like prisons increases psychological stress of emotional dissonance.

 

2000 - 2010

I began with the question of what mysterious things go on in the outside environment when we are not watching.
