My recent work is the result of a confluence of influences; most notably my experience as an acupuncturist and the Taoist philosophy and Five Element theory that serve as the foundation of Oriental Medicine. The work has also been informed by my career as a theatre and film designer and its engagement with the figure in relationship to its environment.
My process involved delving into the deep waters of subterranean musings - the realm of ghosts and demons - the keepers of unfinished business. I explored the tension between opposing concepts: emerging and submerging, revealing and obfuscating, taking in and letting go as well as the idea of reflection: how what we see is always extruded through our mind's eye.
