Artist Resume
- Artist Statement
-
Working site-specifically for the most part, my practice both evolves from and responds to the context and topography of a given space. I explore the realm between truth and fiction through storylines and image-making; dismantling myths and re-assembling them for my own aesthetic convenience.
I am trained in Fine Art, Architecture and Graphic Design, these inter-related disciplines both influence and inform my practice.
I work across a variety of media: from paintings and objects to film and text. In Scrutinium, a fictional archive, I made up and screen printed a newspaper unravelling a story which I “documented”, this multilayered installation included painted portraits, found materials and texts. - Current and Future Exhibitions
