Infinite Curiosity

Curiosity: an eager wish to know or learn about something

Being creative opens my horizons, helps me make connections and expands my life in ways I might never have imagined.

I am a mixed media, multi-disciplinary artist and I like to work flexibly adapting my approach to the themes I am exploring. My work often starts with photography but can also include painting, drawing, scanography, collage and decollage, to name a few.

I am drawn to themes of transcience, impermanence and change. My practice often explores existential issues and the precariousness of the human condition. My most recent project focuses on the concept of digital afterlife and what it means to leave digital traces. I am driven by curiosity and love to research topics in depth as well as developing my creative responses and skills.

I also have a recurring theme of creative destruction and can often be found tearing, burning, bleaching and soaking elements of my work. This is stimulated by a fascination with meaning making and how we express our emotions visually. As a result my work tends towards the abstract and conceptual.

The interplay between digital and material, object and ephemerality has led me to explore artists books as a new medium for my work. I often produce book forms as a means of exploring my current themes. I appreciate John Blakemore’s view that the book form gives an added flexibility and it is certainly influencing the development of my work.
