My art is about universal interconnection: the desire to see an environment or event from all sides all at once and being in touch with that synchronous moment – the omniscient participant. If I am gazing at a stream I am not just fascinated with the water as it flows by, but also where it has come from, where it is going, and what other streams intersect. Through the compiling, cutting and layering of photographs and hand applying pigments I create visions of converging moments of time, space and the psyche. I strive for that point of intersection where the physical and the mental planes converge into the extraordinary moment of the “new experience”. For it is when we are presented with a seemingly fresh set of circumstances that we are forced into leaving our expectations behind and a unique side of ourselves is then revealed. From this experience of clarity or insight we may connect with ourselves, each other and our environment in a more genuine manner.
