My work is all about process. Reflections on process help me establishing my artistic self. I make large abstract canvases exploring various materials and compositional process. During the last year, my practice has undergone a wave of transformation in the studio when I began working with pure pigment to create washes of pigment across the surface. I began a process of painting and ‘un-painting’ by applying several layers of pure pigment. Following an unpremeditated yet instinctive process, I work intensively not knowing the outcome, generating an action and response dialogue between painter, material and surface. The fusion of various paint layers is the most fascinating part in my artwork. In my paintings and sculptures, I make heavy use of the colour blue to develop my understanding of darkness and depth. Blue is significant in my palette as it is associated with ideas of the creator. Colour, in my works, is infused with a range of meanings, some involving cultural memory, some assuming metaphysical importance, and some inspiring revelations. What I aim to achieve with colour is to create manifold meanings and associations that the viewer can immerse themselves in. Colour is an important element in my work as it strengthens notions of the mysterious, strange and unknown. It acts as a connection between me and the viewer.
