Artist Statement
My practice is multidisciplinary and the art work is nearly always a response to the environment. My paintings contemplate the fragmentation of time and biodiversity. They are built up of geometric shapes, elements of repetition, pattern and vivid colour.
When the government introduced travel restrictions it gave me the opportunity to see nature around me in a new way. The notion of stopping and seeing how importance biodiversity is, is where the series ‘Yellow Halo’ began.
