Metaphorically, my practice could be seen as a conversation between five different characters.

 

The first one is the philosopher. She is preoccupied with the finite quality of things and their significance, in order to live more fully.

 

The second one is the illusionist. She uses disorienting tricks, to reveal connections between lived experience, inherited traditions, histories and current affairs. Despite this apparent opacity, she is moved by a desire to understand.

 

The third character is the surrealist. She is fascinated by the potential of the strange and unknown to come to new meaning and as a way to comprehend and experience beyond rationality.

 

The fourth one is the mystic. She looks for an experience of mystery and spirituality within an earthly realm.

 

And finally, the artist, who explores what role art can play in all the above mentioned wonderings.
