ABOUT

My practice starts with an interest in the cities we live in, exploring the forces in place to sustain these huge sprawling cities. Giant supply chains almost too complex to fully comprehend like veins leading to the heart feeding the shops, cafes, and houses that make up everyday life. Within my work contains the building blocks of these processes, cement, concrete, oil, cardboard crucial to support the supply networks of the world. I explore how these materials can be used and interact when stripped of their original purpose and placed into new context so far removed from their home.
I allow my work to flow and evolve while still drawing elements from older movements of the 1910s to 30s mostly Suprematism and Constructivism while asking what their work means in a world today so wrapped up in the consumerist globalism of the 21st century. Being inspired by the world around me also leads me to have a more architectural element to the work creating an almost sculptural element when on canvas, I almost think of my paintings as thin sculptures.
