ARTISTS STATEMENT
My work is about experimenting with different mediums and pushing them to the “new” and beyond the limits. Often creating multi-layered surfaces.
I work with painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography etc. I am fascinated with silk.
The creative process is what motivates me and I will comfortably shift between a variety of mediums to get the result I am looking for.
My work covers anything from silk to steel and back. I have worked with bronze, cement and wood on a number of occasions.
