Kaleidoscope Eyes

My practice stems from a natural inclination toward human psychology, with a specific interest in transitional objects. Equipped with a figurative, mixed-media background, I have refined my current focus to memories and environment. This recent body of work is based around the toy clown I was given as a child. Making use of his aesthetic pleasures objectifies my mental state. These paintings aim to reveal the depths of my character through strong symbolism and recurring themes. My practice is a continuous improvisational and impulsive process. The overall aim is to provide the viewer with an understanding of who I am.

Mae fy ymarferion wedi datblygu gyda tuedd naturiol i seicoleg dynol, mae yna ddiddordeb penodol mewn gwrthrychau trosiannol. Gyda chefndir ffigurol a chyfryngau cymysg, rwyf wedi mireinio fy ffocws presennol i mewn i’r amgylchedd a fy atgofion. Mae’r corff o waith yma yn seiliedig ar tegan clown gefais fel plentyn. Mae defnydd o’r pleserau esthetig yn rhoi effaith gwrthrycheddol ar fy cyflwr meddyliol. Mae’r paentiadau yn anelu i ddadansoddi dyfnder fy chymeriad trwy symboddoliaeth cryf a themau cylchol. Mae fy arfer yn broses byrfyfyr a phyrbwyll parhaus. Y nod cyffredinol yw darparu’r gwyliwr gyda dealltwriaeth o pwy ydwi i.

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...
