LockDown, 2004, features nine sculptures created with prison beds from Kingston Penitentiary for Women; door hardware, air diffusers, office dividers and other objects recycled from government buildings.
LockDown was commissioned as part of an art/recycling initiative utilizing discarded materials provided by Public Works & Government Services Canada and Correctional Service of Canada.

| LockDown was exhibited at the Art Gallery of Algoma in May 2005.
Coupled with LockDown was an installation entitled 15 Minutes of Fame - an interactive installation wherein viewers were invited to juxtapose assorted objects with a prison bed to create personal artistic statements.
