Cuckoo Farm Studios

Statement

• Aspects of colour, light and movement are features of my present work.

  I am particularly interested in exploring the interaction of colours, their ability to evoke time / place , and ways in which movement can be suggested.

  I do not intend to necessarily restrict myself to working in two dimensions – the use of found objects and site-specific items as catalysts, as well as working in three dimensions are all awaiting my attention.

  Methodology and process are also components of my practice, and as a result of this I find progression and order in the form of sequences, grids and series tend to be much in evidence.
