How we control and manipulate our futures. Sometimes consciously through thought and speech, other times through physical manipulation - squeezing, pushing and carving things into what we think we want.
A series of work produced around the theme of ‘the self’
A series of playful collages created from one copy of Vogue magazine. Looking at the idea of how high fashion connects or misconnects with our subconscious.
What the eyes see the hand will do
Some runners clear their minds when they run, with each step the mundane thoughts that clutter the mind are set free into the universe.
Exploring a heightened sense of smell while running
Continued collage work using deconstructed elements of magazines reconfigured to form new narratives that unfold and take form as pages are destroyed.
A series of 25 sketchbook drawings from memory / imagination highlighting the process of 'remembering'.

For me there is often a single and very specific visual point or cue that images work their way out from.
A series of collages from the perspective of the past and visions of possible future events. This collection work brings sense of a time and a place but in the existence of memory only, not now but then, exactly then in that precise moment in time. A view of an existence from a very specific point in space and time. I have examined the process of thinking and my ability to recall moments of past experience to bring a sense of a new space and time.
