ARTIST STATEMENT

Through my work I aim to find the quiet space within the viewer, the aesthetics

evoking an emotional response without symbolism or narrative.

I often refer to the Australian landscape when thinking about my work. Within this

land there is an inherent sense of the vast. The horizon dissolves and the boundary

between land and sky blur, as does the boundary between this vast landscape and

myself. Being in this space creates stillness in my mind. Portraying this stillness has

remained a constant aim within my work.
