Obsessive Compulsive

For some people OCD is an extremely serious phycological disorder that greatly impedes the lives of those who suffer it. However, everyone to some extent displays signs of personal rituals, quirks and foibles.In this collection i have created a series of works that reflect obsessive or ritualistic behaviour through interactions with everyday objects.

OCD Switch reflects the compulsion of repeatedly switching on and off
light switches.  It is perhaps one of the best known OCD related compulsion.

The switch has a built in numeric counter which allows the user to quickly count the desired number of on/off repetitions without the concern that they have counted one too many or too few. The red button resets the numeric counter to display zero.

Symmetry Frame  allows the user to make sure that their pictures are
perfectly perpendicular by using the built in spirit level.

'The first bite’ plates are standard white ceramic plates with a sauce smear image glazed onto the surface. It creates a standard for imperfection when preparing food.
