Making art out of prosaic stuff, hoping for some poetry
I mainly paint and draw, fuelled by my interest in female agency,
I use history, mythology, and personal memory to stand witness to often hidden or silenced lives, particularly those of women.
The materiality of thought and feeling is key, so I let my chosen mediums lead me, whether oil paint, graphite, or smoke.
Process, time, and the relationship between object and subject link the recurring patterns and images in my work:
doubling; elusive surfaces; ambiguity. Hands, masked faces, mirrors, and threads are common;
isolated or overlooked individuals, both past and present, frequently appear.
