Azithromycin, is an on-going project and sculptural work, that started in 2025 and continues to physically grow, changing in size and shape for the foreseeable future, as long as Ash is on this medication. Azithromycin is an oral antibiotic that he has taken since he was sixteen years of age, and seeks to explore this narrative from this time frame to current, from an Ontological perspective.
This work explores the repetition of medicating every day and the durational aspects this brings within the existence of the work, and an entanglement in Ash’s existence and survival through modern medicine.
Latex is the chosen material for this work for its bodily qualities, relating to Ash's lived corporeal complexities. This material is ephemeral and has a fragility to it, bringing another dimension of time and decay into the fold.

Lung function is an on-going project and series.
A process captured through experimental digital printing processes. Formulating a reflection of intension of the lucidity of the (CF) Cystic Fibrosis condition. This fluctuation of bodily existence never sits still in time. The ink process in this work is a medium intuitively experimented with and inspired by the scarring of the lungs and resilience they can withstand.
This work intends to be made and displayed in a variety of ways, subject to funding opportunities.
Clinic 4, Room 4
Text work
2025
Upcoming exhibition TBC
Clinic 4, Room 4; is a work that exists as a poem and text work. Inspired by Ash's lived experiences of a patient in regular clinical environments. These experiences are always in a state-of-flux, and in-turn so is the artwork. Ash explores the making of sense, and how writing can be a vessel to do this, through the complexities of the psychological and philosophical understanding of (lived-existence).
This work intends to be made and displayed in a variety of ways, subject to funding opportunities.
