Trolling#1 is the first sculpture to be exhibited in a series exploring consumerism and its resulting social issues.

By creating an infinite shape through the repetition of the shopping trolley, I hope to reference the instability of our culture in the dogged pursuit of more - "When too much is never enough."

This is the premise that is driving the other sculptures in the series around the portmanteau - Affluenza
