About
As a human being, ingestion of the world around has never been enough.
Creation, recreation and interpretation are tools I must use to understand the world around me. I am deeply fascinated with the spaces that we exist in, and across disciplines of both art and design, I hope to re-frame collective notions of what these spaces actually are. The settings in which living stories unfold often tell stories in themselves, which is why cartographic and architectural motifs occur so frequently in my work.
While the themes that I approach within my work remains reasonably consistent, the mediums that I use are constantly changing, evolving, and informing one another. Drawing, printing, writing, building and digital design are a few of the many tools I’ve experimented with in my practice.
In my own practice, playing and making are often one and the same. I strive to employ the intuitive research that I collect from the playful things that intrigue me. Hobbies and pastimes such as baseball, map-making or even toys, such as puzzles and building blocks, are constant and crucial influences to what I make. These formative interests manifest into languages which I use to create and interpret the interdisciplinary connections that exist in the world around us.
