Jam Today 
An installation response for Austerity! in FAB16
 

"The rule is, jam to-morrow and jam yesterday—but never jam today."
This wacky pronouncement made by Lewis Carols fictional White Queen, seems to have been appropriated as the rule of thumb for the government’s austerity programme.  
Jam Today challenges the authority of that perverse logic and explores ideas around competing interest groups confounded by their bindings.. Suggestive of the aftermath of a battle at the check out. A metaphor for a dysfunctional consumer society.
The trollies release chains, normally agents of order, have become shackles of chaos.
