My practice is centered primarily on painting, printmaking, drawing and collage. My current series of paintings present a fusion of organic and mechanical forms of everyday objects.

The works seek to explore the potential of the larger scale painting and with it the traditional compositional techniques, such as the Baroque diagonal. These paintings are borne out of a process of continuous interaction with drawing as means of determination and calculation. Despite this structured approach, and the figurative subject, the works are very much about the act of painting itself. The layering oil paints and acrylics allow me to describe the plains in my paintings, whilst the marks shift from calculated to intuitive line drawings and gestural painting. The dark earthy tones combined with saturated hues sit uneasily alongside each other supporting the sense of agitation the subject aims to bring.

My subject stems from disquiet about our entrapped relationship with the technological world and refers to the multitude of everyday electrical devices that fill our lives, as well as old science fiction movies, which I capture and translate through a visual language building on the baroque, surrealism and contemporary figurative painting.

I seek to amalgamate the natural forms with technology and use lamps as the embodiment of this uncanniness. Whilst lamps usually have the role to highlight other objects, in my paintings the lamps and wires are writhing creatures that illuminate nothing other than themselves.ice is centered primarily on painting, printmaking, drawing and collage.
