    My painting practice investigates personal and collective experiences of
    landscapes through abstraction.

    Drawing from direct engagement with place, I collect images and materials
    that hold a personal resonance and serve as points of departure for my
    work. These elements are rooted in the belief that they are carriers of
    memory and time, reflecting histories embedded, evoking themes of
    sentiment, mortality, and continuity with the past.

    My art is deeply intertwined with reflection. Poetry and my sketchbooks
    serve as analytical tools through which fleeting perceptions are intertwined
    with elements in the landscape, which can be amplified or reduced.
    Colours are applied intuitively, operating as a means of articulating
    subjective experiences of place and nostalgic attachment.


    My process is layered and iterative, beginning with loose observational
    sketches and cropped compositions of what intrigues me. Acrylics and
    charcoal are occasionally incorporated before the application of oil paint.
    Through this method, I explore notions of layering, duration, and
    dimensionality. The paintings evolve through continual assessment,
    negotiating a tension between freedom and control, perception and
    structure.

  • At its core, my work embraces loss and openness. Ongoing exploration is
    fundamental to me, with painting functioning as a site of inquiry, release,
    and transformation. Shape, colour, and form are my most expressive forms
    of communication, allowing my passion for abstraction to articulate
    experiences that extend beyond representation.
