| Freeman examines a variety of ideas and emotions
surrounding
contemporary architectural systems.
The works focuses on such topics as architecture and theatrical
experience, where every part of living, (air, light, sound, food
etc.) is
tailored to the desires of the inhabitants, the voyeuristic/ exhibitionistic
relationships that exist within such a community and the play between
the psychic states of fear and safety.
Instead of using a documentary style to define this environment,
Freeman employs the luscious cinematic techniques of fantasy, such
as theatrical lighting, staged dramatic situations and a constant
stream of popular music.
