Artist's Statement

|
My work explores the influence of landscape on the individual by addressing
the power of certain forms found in nature to evoke memory, emotion
and anthropomorphic physicality. Some of the works celebrate the poetic;
others question our increasingly dysfunctional relationship to the
natural world. Reoccurring symbols such as; the boat, the cultivated
forest and the shoe-box house reference the struggles of the human
psyche. Nature is perceived as a mirror- not only of our own physical
form, but of our relationship with our inner selves. |
