The children yearn for the mines is a painting in oil and beeswax on linen examining Fuller's captivation with technology within the workplace; this piece showcases a geometric composition characterised by intricate grids. The painting is subdivided into sections featuring keyboards, in particular Blackberry phones, office design furniture and office building architecture, reminiscent of pixels and other technological devices. The artist's aesthetic choices draw inspiration from the '80s and '90s sci-fi films, evoking the cinematic style found in works by director David Cronenberg.
