Profile
I am primarily interested in drawing as a way of cataloguing and recording events, words, notation, signs, doodles, half remembered things, insignificant and amazing things, antique, modern and unreal stuff. These are then reassembled so that they resemble a subtle abstract constructed of fairly discordant imagery. I am particularly interested in the notion of one specific point in time being surrounded by both its history and its future.
Current projects are moving away from the conventional rectangular, solid image to more fragmented mixed media installations.
