Caves of Requirement investigates personal notions of escapism by re-imagining the sanctuaries we retreat to when in need of 'time-out'. The work explores the private dwellings we create in our backyards, bedrooms, offices and inner psyches to shut out and recharge from the regular confines of reality, time and place.
