Artist's Statement:
-
I
have an eclectic range of interests so my work isn't limited to a
single ongoing strand. This does not stop me being thorough in my
research or commitment, but it does mean I may change tracks suddenly
returning later to something that has been on pause.
Despite the diversity there
are connective strands that permeate my work.
I am interested in the apparently perverse dysfunction
of reality and the deconstruction and reconstruction
of the world around me. This manifests itself
in a fascination with science, maths and nature.
Truth is not the only goal,
I also find delight in the way the universe
lies to us, not only with illusion but also
with the paradoxes and inconsistencies it regularly
presents. The reactions and coping strategies
our species displays in response are also of
interest particularly when they become mystical.
I enjoy working with different
media and will quite happily focus on one or
mix several into a single piece of work. I am
willing to use any media to try and make sense
of my subject, however my work is most commonly
expressed in painting, drawing, digital media,
or some combination of these methods.
