My work explores abstractions of physical and emotional evocations that are experienced in transformative spatial journeys.
I make paintings, drawings and sculptures spanning across mediums incorporating loose tracings of my surroundings both in urban sites and in nature. I use geometry as an encompassing tool to forge connections between the elements that most commonly occur in my works, which are varied as varied as residual paint-brush smears and stains on paint-rags upcycled from domestic textiles (such as napkins or handkerchiefs), cut-out shapes from my paint-palette, gestural brush strokes, paint pressings from my palette, fragments of architectural angles, pavement patterns, swashes of sunset colors, perspectival views, and flickering rhythms of the sea.
An informed intuition orchestrates my decision making process in a cyclical manner. Themes of continuity, repetition, randomness and regeneration after decay create an expansive foundation for my work propelling me to enrich my visual language by incorporating embroidery, rughooking, collage, block printing and marbling.
I proceed without attaching to any structural or metaphorical elements, solely appreciating them as they are and letting them guide me from one decision to the next. I find that the most robust way for my works to reveal themselves is by letting each element be as they are and linger as much as they want until they are ready to transition into the next incarnation.
