My work highlights my creative process and places emphasis on materiality and acts of making. Through experimentation with various materials and processes I have created a series of paintings that focus on the application of paint to a surface. They explore how my tools and paint behave, each mark or area tests the characteristics of the paint, surface and the tools. My paintings highlight the physicality and viscosity of the paint and how the surface I am working on takes hold of the paint. I have focused on the repeated process of applying paint then removing to create a certain imagery, making it apparent what process has taken place. My aim through my artwork is to get my viewers to be more aware of the potential and qualities of their materials and therefore have more respect for the materials we use as artists and to explore materials in new and exciting ways.


Mae fy ngwaith yn pwysleisio fy mhroses greadigol yn ogystal â materoldeb a’r weithred o greu. Drwy arbrofi â gwahanol ddeunyddiau a phrosesau rwyf wedi creu cyfres o beintiadau sy’n canolbwyntio ar osod paent ar arwyneb. Maent yn archwilio’r modd y mae fy offer a phaent yn ymddwyn, mae pob marc neu ardal yn profi nodweddion y paent, yr arwyneb a’r offer. Mae fy mheintiadau’n tanlinellu corfforoldeb a gludedd y paent a sut mae’r arwyneb rwy’n gweithio arno’n gafael yn y paent. Rwyf wedi canolbwyntio ar y broses ailadroddus o osod paent a’i dynnu i ffwrdd i greu delwedd benodol, gan ei gwneud hi’n amlwg pa broses a ddefnyddiwyd. Fy mwriad drwy gyfrwng fy ngwaith celf yw cael fy ngwylwyr i fod yn fwy ymwybodol o botensial a rhinweddau eu deunyddiau a thrwy hynny, gael mwy o barch at y deunyddiau rydym yn eu defnyddio fel artistiaid ac i archwilio deunyddiau mewn ffyrdd newydd a chyffrous.

My artwork was initially inspired by the rave scene which is usually an intense environment of music, colour and lights. I decided to recreate the feelings that my experience evoked, with the use of illuminative acrylics and spray paints on canvas. As spray painting...

Our species has become increasingly disconnected from nature. I focus on landscapes of personal significance and/or landscapes that have been disrupted by industrial use. Materials from these sites (often rocks, muds, and bricks) are used through a process-orientated...

Non-linear narratives such as unreliable memories, leaky dreams and deja vu are a central reference within my practice. I address the structure of these forms of narrative using repetition, replication and iterations of time. My work is largely sculptural, using...

Exploring the fragmentation of memory through the physicality of found objects and the spoken word, my work has become an archive of my family history. Due to the archival nature of my work, I replicate ways of preserving my objects through the attentiveness of their...

In my current practice I am concerned with the objectivity and phenomenology of colour. Through using media such as light and coloured acetate, my present work is intentionally focused and uncluttered, allowing colour to be considered as a singularity without any...

With a love for colour my work addresses form and shape and the impact this has on a space. I am demonstrating how the use of bright colour can create maximum optical impact. I’m interested in pattern and repetition to create a visual aesthetic whilst whilst working...
