A layering of space and time, my work combines found objects, recorded
elements and photography in subtle interplays. Traces of places,
remnants
of
spaces___
A sense of flux, capturing an environment that is in transit and transformation is contrasted by a sense of presence and slow observation. I am interested in the intermingling invisible forces that affects our environments and actions.
I capture elements on the edge of abstraction, stretching the usual register of perception. I present an ambiguity, so the viewer has space to recreate and move beyond the visible. The work often implements an optical oscillation, through this it subtly suggests a malleable, unfixed reality.
My work captures a place in process, simultaneously constructing and
deconstructing. It highlights a betweenness, a binary, where definitive
boundaries dissolve . . .
Through correlating photographic processes, recorded elements and re-
presenting materials often discarded and overlooked, I prise open a gap.
An opening, to consider an alternative___.
