​ARTIST STATEMENT

My work is abstract in nature, presenting random, yet intuitively balanced shapes and forms. Each piece is a process of building up, covering up, fermenting and finally revealing. With the use of text and found phrases in my work, I strive to invoke thought and rumination within the viewer. A love for the process drives my work: the physical application and layering of mixed media materials (acrylic paint, paper, book pages, metal) is my passion. Themes explored in my artistic practice are questions of identity, memory, shadow and transformation..
