The Unbearable Lightness

My work is a process of becoming comfortable with the uncomfortable.
Casting viscous red sealing wax with ‘lost and found’ objects that bear the scars of time, a sense of intimacy is created as I construct new narratives by combining the salvaged with the hand-crafted.
Exploring collective fears and anxieties, which are often hidden and seldom communicated, my work questions our attitude towards our own fragility. It explores what we conceal and what emerges or unfolds from acts of alteration, violence and interference. It is a balance between creative and destructive urges, a discovery of Presence and Absence, an insistence of intimacy and an act of reparation.
