Statement
On the edge of understanding; the paintings are an exploration of the unconscious, intuition and response. In their process of merging painting with monoprint, journey becomes an inevitable theme as the act of painting is entered in a similar way to that of decalcomania. Any attachment to an initial starting point is lost via this method.
What is definite of the works is their relation to the body and space. They are not contained by the binaries of abstraction and figuration but rather encapsulate human experience. The paintings relate to present thoughts and become a snapshot of both temporary and permanent states of mind.
