I work in a variety of media including drawing, assemblage, photography, video and text. My method, broadly speaking, is collage. I assemble disparate fragments and allow meanings to arise from their arbitrary relationships.
My field of enquiry is widely inclusive in scope. It ranges from folk tales and circus to Shakespeare and Brechtian theatre, from post-modern self-reflexive critique to existential problems of living authentically and from history and memory to the marvelous and the absurd. Many of my concerns such as the dialectic of utopia, disaster and survival are rooted in my early experiences including growing up with radical parents.
Narrative is central to my work both as subject and method. Much of my work presents a freeze- frame moment that evokes a much larger fiction – a fictive world not much stranger or more comic than our own. What may or may not have happened between these moments remains open.
