I Can Barely Contain Myself

By Laurence O’Toole – View Artist’s Profile

This is the initial piece in an ongoing series of photography and performance involving this anonymous character interacting with different scenarios. His suit is both impenetrable and reflective, it insulates him from the outside world and mirrors what it contains. There are a selection of scenes and settings, from domestic to natural to man-made, they are explored tentatively with curiosity and sometimes frustration. He is an avatar of the anxious, the alienated and the discombobulated.
