In Rules for Safe Lifting, Watson creates an imagined reality of a lonely figure trapped within the confines of an old, overlooked health and safety poster. With their existence brought to life in a dark basement room, concrete clad and damp, our protagonist searches for companionship.

Scored by a broken radio, their only connection with the outside world, the lonely figure navigates their relationship with isolation, monotony and what to do when faced with the greatest inevitability of all.
