I make paintings, collages/asemblages and ceramic sculptures, all of which are circular amalgams of my emotion, memory, consciousness, and the phenomena and noumena in the world.
To sense the phenomenal world is a direct apprehension of what is – abstraction is our first language where we are at one with our natural surroundings, in that moment, without needing to name or analyse. Yet this sensing is inevitably translated into a structure of some sort - always a picturing. So how we picture the energy for ourselves and how we translate that energy in our own personal language is key.
Instead of translating in a preconceived language orchestrated to deliver a message, or re-state the tenets of any discourse, all my work is like a psychological object that is a state of being at a time, with space and time not being considered linear.
