My work explores the relationship between Critical theory and emotional memories.
With influences as diverse as Kierkegaard and Joni Mitchell, new tensions are manufactured from both orderly and random textures.
Ever since I was a teenager I have been fascinated by the essential unreality of the moment. What starts out as hope soon becomes manipulated into a tragedy of distress, leaving only a sense of chaos and the dawn of a new synthesis.
As temporal replicas become distorted through frantic and repetitive practice, the viewer is left with an impression of the edges of our future.
