Research

Collage and printmedia are the conceptual motors of my research. They are used to analyse media, generate ideas and uncover hidden concerns. The jarring contrasts and ambiguous parallels created when assembling found images are central to my project. In turn, these works on paper are translated into sculptural installations and video that are populated by disconnected and deluded publics.
