"Re-presenting the overlooked is important in my work. I'm interested to see if the simple act of presenting something cast-off can be restorative. It's very satisfying to scrounge for unloved materials and objects and resuscitate them. That can be simply through giving them new company, by combining a rock with some packaging or some shells with chain; to point to another life or function that something could hold, the potential of things can lie latent and be animated through a simple act." 

From an interview with Michael Newall, Errand Workshop catalogue, 2011.
