AWARD WINNING ARTIST

ABOUT

 

The expressive mark-makings explored throughout my work stems from an intuitive thought process, creating energy formed by the use of colour.

Colour performs as the key motivation behind my compositions. It allows me to suggest forms of emotion, influencing the application of intuition through the combination of complimentary forms.

Abstracting the use of colour and form, my personal research driven by the work of Wassily Kandinsky, has had an influential impact on my practice.

Taking inspiration from his theories on shape and colour, My practice converses with higher thinking. I aim to create a personal and contemporary take on his revolutionary theories in abstract art.
I continuously reference film sets through out my work, set designs are subconsciously absorbed into my colour palette and to the application of structure created.
It is in particular the 1988 American fantasy horror film BeatleJuice directed by Tim Burton, that is fundamental to my practice.
The imaginative style of fragmented objects being displayed within uncanny environments, creates a form of uncertainty. This plays on an unrealistic foundation, where burtons creations form a new reality.
My paintings are a form of escapism which are formed using impulsive actions. The layering of paint is built upon pushing and pulling the applied medium back and forth by sanding multiple surfaces created. This technique creates dimension to my work, suggestive surfaces can be pulled out. Allowing for fragmented moments to be pieced together by the viewer, to which they can form their own imaginative narrative.
