Artist Statement
My practice is driven by intuition, colour, and an ongoing relationship with materials over time.
Painting and textiles are a way of thinking and feeling, a process of responding rather than resolving.
I work in layers, often returning to earlier works, fragments, or gestures that were previously unresolved. What does not work in one moment is rarely discarded; instead, it remains part of an evolving archive that continually re-enters the practice. Time is an active collaborator, allowing ideas to resurface, shift, and find new relevance.
Colour functions as both structure and atmosphere in the work. It is used intuitively, guided by sensation, memory, and environment rather than predetermined systems. Surfaces are built, disrupted, and reworked, embracing uncertainty and resisting fixed outcomes.
Rather than moving linearly from one body of work to the next, the practice operates cyclically. Motifs recur, materials are reused, and earlier decisions are revisited. The work remains open, less concerned with conclusion than with sustained attention and presence. I often wonder if any work is ever truly finished - how can it be?
