Taking the aesthetic of traffic control signage, ‘Triangles Exist within the Circle’ incorporates iconography of dancing figures and the smiley face of acid house into ritualistic totems. These sculptural forms delineate a sacred space for rave and echo the form of neolithic henge monuments. The appropriation of road signage is a nod to the London M25 orbital, which was newly completed in 1986 and carved out new routes into the English countryside; facilitating the early rave scene. Pilgrims seeking out the location of a Rave would often gather at motorway service stations, where cryptic messages were left in telephone boxes; or they could be found circling the M25 merry-go-round to intercept pirate radio transmissions.
