selected works

This gallery presents selected works in reverse chronological order and includes pieces from three series: Impressions, Internal Forces & Giving Voice. 

The subject matter is often arboreal coupled with the Impression that an environment makes upon the senses and how reduced a representation of that can be and still evoke association from us. For example when we look at something a subconscious process of exchange begins in our brain as all our senses attempt to fully understand what is in front of us. Our brain attempts to match the information from our eyes to the vast library of experiences we have accumulated and  sensorial 'hits' such as texture. ​When it 'solves the problem' it releases dopamine - we are rewarded - decoding abstract art can literally induce happiness.

Internal Forces are attempts to represent manifestations of the internal growth and communication networks that we share with the arboreal. 

Works in the Giving Voice series strive to allow the impact of life cycles and wider environmental change to speak.
