My interests predominantly centre around communication, information and behaviour, with specific regard to the technological advances which have altered and will alter our lifestyles either subtly or to a far greater extent.

I seek to relegate the eventful and elevate the forgotten and present them side by side, as equal and inseparable.

My work touches on appropriation. Similar by its means, it is more personal and attempts to challenge the reproduction as taste forming. I am interested in the paradox: whether it is possible to profane a copy, does it have value and can it still be classified as art.
By conscious choice, I am trying to bring back art to the reproduction. The artist’s choice is deliberate. The pieces are carefully selected. I consider them significant in my practice from various reasons. Very often it becomes a comment, a tribute, a dialogue.
I work in not extending 7 series, using the same starting point. Each peace is unique and exists on its own. The materials are very minimal and fragile. Putting them next to each other removes reassuring comfort zone and reveals their origins.

My work is about trying to hold onto a past memory, here from a day spent walking in the park. Through photos, sketches and memory I try to create an image of the mind's eye.

I am interested in the relationship between place and people
My current work is about borders
We are surrounded by borders, they are part of how we co-exist; borders between country and country, area and area, family and family, even individuals. In our day to day lives it often seems that we do not mind or do not notice them. They are mostly changeable, obscure and invisible.
I would like to reveal the given space through the idea of borders and make the viewer a little more aware of the space.
