Artist's Statement

 

 

 

My current practice engages with the axis between painting, mark making and the digital.

I explore the aspect of 'Becoming', the influence of forces of 'Becoming' and technology in art, events where different media and consciousness overlap and interact with each other.

Digital media challenge other forms of imagery with the dispersion into a flux, destabilizing its solidity with pixellation. At the same time, this flux supports a visuality designed to 'de-limit' the illusion of 'finished' images; it highlights the aspect of change and newness that is central to the creative process.

Merging traditional (painting and mark making) and digital media as well as referring to specific historical art extends my practice to an aspect of time; a tension generated by the unfolding of time, generated by the simultaneity of both objective, linear time and internal, experiential duration.

I experiment with this understanding of the process of the 'Becoming' of images and its analogue in human experience.
