Inspiration
My work explores intimate spaces, our thoughts and memories; the unspoken word, our dreams and remnants of what's left behind.
Our home and place of birth etches in our memories. It has a sense of belonging and wanting to fit in.
I use architectural spaces and objects as a metaphor for comfort and security to which can quickly move from security and anxiety to pleasure and pain.
