The Exhibition

Artist Statement | Explorations 1998 – 2021

I have always been curious in life. In art it has been no different. I enjoy exploring the lines between abstract, landscape and figurative art; to find a space where it all can exist is quite exciting. This way of working has led to the discovery of a familiar yet fantastical landscapes. It’s brought questions to the forefront, allowing curiosity to ensue and question the sights ahead.

From merging abstract forms with an imaginary landscape to constructing solid forms with doodles superimposed over real landscapes to taking paint and brushstrokes to a more intuitive way of working. I am on a pilgrimage in finding a balance with the differing styles I am working in. I work intuitively and with purpose. I enjoy bringing a sense of fun and curiosity within my artwork, with the hope to evoke joy, a smile, and a wonderment to your day.

In this collection you will see the journey I have embarked on to get here. The collections include artwork from the following bodies of work: The Untitled Series, The Earthquake Series, Intuitive Art & Synergy in Motion (click on the links below to find out more about each of the collections). All the above comes under the umbrella of Identity which I am currently exploring. More will be revealed soon.
