Artist Statement

What I am tracking are notions of the interior existence,
pondering the ordinary disturbances of living in order to
uncover and inform subject and metaphor. I think I may
be after some description (just a hint) of what might be
called the "spiritual" - but I am not inclined to locate or
constrain my search within cliche or convention.

So the work becomes an attempt to tease out alternative
mythologies by exploring territories around the body, in
its absence as well as presence. When the certainty of the
physical self is taken out of the equation - what then of us
exists/remains? What of us escapes the limits of corporeal
boundary - reaching out towards something nearer to a
vision or version of life stripped down to authentic core?

So I am following hunches and probing the spaces in and
around - for clues and concepts of what might be seen to
be sacred or normal or both - trying to pick up a scent of
the soul - hoping for the briefest glimpse.
