Artist Statement:

My work focuses on the challenges we face by inhabiting a body that is constantly changing,

decaying and regenerating, as well as the fragility and limitations that are intrinsic to all living

organisms. Within this, I explore the dysfunctional relationship between the mind and body,

and in particular, the mind’s discordant perception of the body, which includes concepts of

dislocation, emotional projection, fluctuating perceptions, fears, phobias and paranoia.

Thus, with the body set as a canvas for trauma, my work becomes a series of flesh events

that are visceral, tactile and faintly haunting.
