‘Fragments’ & ‘Fazed’

My recent work explores the theme of anxiety, creating worlds that seem familiar but are made ambiguous through various forms of abstraction. I use a variety of materials to make drawings and paintings that are also influenced by my interest in the natural world, comic books and aspects of photography. I see my work as a reflection of our current, ever-changing world. I believe this sense of transience and renewal offers hope, as characterized by T.S. Eliot’s¬¬ line, ‘Every moment is a fresh beginning.’
