Artist's Statement
Creating is like ‘finding’ in a way. I have the curiosity to see what happens if I ‘place that shape, that slight curve, against that straight edge’. I sometimes wonder if creating work is simply a way of communicating with the wider world what one ‘has found to be interesting’ or even beautiful, hoping that the viewer will be blessed or challenged by it.
I agree with the author Doris Lessing when she said: “An artists job is to say ‘this is what I see”. Much of my work is an attempt to speak into culture ‘what I see’.
