Artist statement

My practise is an examination of theories of time and space in relation to language, object and movement. I am currently working with installation, sculpture and printmaking.  My work aims to convey a shared human experience and understanding of these theories through physical interaction with the work.

I am exploring the language used to understand our place within time and space and how ideas can be communicated through form and material. I have experimented with the elasticity of space and form given to words. How words such as NOW and NOWHERE can physically manifest. I have approached this using industrial materials such as steel. Scale, site and process are also very important to my practise.

I take inspiration from Donald Judd and Richard Serra’s sculpture, Cerith Wyn Evans’s installation and Anatol Knotek’s concrete poetry. Having always leaned toward a minimalist aesthetic I am fascinated by works which successfully convey a concept, how an audience approaches objects and how objects can communicate.

I have been working on a series of sculptural ideas, which mimic architectural installations. I am interested in how understanding can rely upon being present at a very specific time and place. These works consist of object arrangements and contain eureka moments enabled by position, perspective or light. Experiential time is at the heart of these works and the physical and visual memory that remains beyond the encounter.
