My practice delves into our relationship with time and memory, exploring their fleeting and fragmented natures and how they shape perception of our environment. 

I explore making work which prompts the viewer to connect with their own memories and experiences, to uncover and find meaning in a world that can feel chaotic and fast-paced, as we navigate the societal issues that surround us. 

​

I draw from a range of references and visual cues. Primarily, the emphasis on composition, light and shadow of the Renaissance, as well as the emotional focus found in the Romantic and Abstract Expressionist movements. I blend  the images of current affairs with these primary influences in my practice.

Central to my work is the concept of capturing thoughts that reside on the edge of recollection – fragments of memory that time has partially eroded. 

Instead of focusing on definitive form, my work explores this amorphous and ambiguous nature. Through this exploration, I dig into moments, reimagining and rearranging them.
