Artist Statement

The main influence that feeds my creative practice is the love of travel and my phenomenological response to new places and cultures. I aim to capture a sense of site and place through an abstract language of mark making and material exploration. I use drawing and printmaking alongside sculpture to create a dialog between the language of 2D and 3D art.

Recent mix media works use the ceramic process of extruding; letting gravity determine the shape of the porcelain. Combined with the porcelain I use laser cut plastic and wood to fit into the negative spaces created by the porcelain. These processes combine analogy and digital technology to playfully explore how to fit resistant materials round organic form.
