Taking you into a strange imaginary world of captive babies and evil spiders, Anastasia Young's small, boxed installations make use of found and constructed objects. Set in an underground complex, Spiders regulate and control improbable machines that harness body parts and insects to create horrific hybrid creatures.
Inspired in part by the objects she finds, Young trawls junk markets for rusty decrepit artefacts, dolls to adapt and beaten-up picture frames. The narrative juxtaposition of pieces and attention to detail draw the viewer in to study these carefully crafted and subtly lit boxes.
