My story so far

I am a multidisciplinary artist working primarily in collage at present as a means of navigating the delicate threshold between inner and outer worlds. My current practice centres on what I have recently termed 'introvecta' - the sum total of all thoughts, memories, beliefs and emotions that are carried within, and 'extrovecta', the sum total of all the physical 'stuff' carried outwardly. 2025 - the year of the snake. A year involving the death of a loved one, a new business venture and personal transformation. A year that was the catalyst for an emerging body of work. Collage then becomes a sort of 'transmutational processing' of introvecta and extrovecta for final expression in the material world.

As an artist, what I term 'Introvectal release' occurs in the solitude and privacy of the studio, where deconstruction becomes meditation and the act of rearranging fragments becomes an intuitive method of self-inquiry. 'Extrovectal release' unfolds when the finished work enters the public space, inviting viewers to locate their own stories within the seams, ruptures, and juxtapositions.

By embracing fragmentation as generative rather than destructive, my work proposes collage as both ritual and dialogue: a practice of internal clearing and external communion, where what is broken becomes connective tissue.
