Peter McFarlane has been a professional artist for 25 years and his work is in public and private collections on 3 continents. He relies on obsessively long hours, serendipity and taking risks to uncover his ideas. He works with everyday recycled materials that he manipulates to contour and re-contextualize meaning and challenge the viewer's expectation and perception of the object. He hopes it makes the audience look more closely, think more intimately and re-evaluate aspects of their own existence. He believes that by valuing the object, we are less likely to chronically replace it and thus the possibility exists to create a more comprehensive understanding of the world around us. He believes waste and garbage are just a lack of imagination.
