Artist Statement

​

My practice is a process of activation. By generating visual and textual prompts to occupy spaces, I create environments that challenge their intended uses. The work exists as interplay between space and surface, resulting in open-ended experiences that leave the audience to fill the gaps with their own enquiry.
