"All yours” is a collaboration piece exploring the complexities of the Ancient Greek term of ‘Hyphen’. By bridging two separate words as one, the term seemingly draws connotations between the two, yet it highlights the very notion and establishes a new ‘function’ for the each word. The work adopts the duality of the ‘hyphen’ to explore the relationship between images. Whilst the historical meaning highlights the notion “under one”, the work makes use of the literal definition of revealing the beneath similar to the concept of a scratch card. The work plays with the ambiguity between fortune telling and betting, inviting viewers to scratch the image, yet leaves the decision-making – in revealing the hidden or otherwise – entirely with the audience.
