- Material and contemporary technological research is fundamental to my approach to practice. My logic of making is characterised by process, with the post-minimal qualities issued out of the material choices. The sourced materials - ordered online, found, recycled, re-used and used up, become combined and poised together. I remain open to incorporating toxic materials that touch into industrial process, enjoying their shininess. The ongoing motifs from past anecdotal materials are encased with childhood memories. Architectural presence is a strong and persistent feature of my installations. The support structures become integral parts, allowing for boundaries between environment and architecture to disappear. I make use of the energy between objects - the walls, floors and windows allow for lying, leaning, flopping. These surfaces become energetic with potential. Sharing the gentleness involved in times of air, light and temperature. There is a relation between the present, the past and the future - technologically, materially and practically. The subtle nuances give a minimal softness that has a sense of poiesis. The experiential qualities and sensations allow fantastical slices to become present.
