Statement

My work explores the use of imagination to interpret shapes and patterns of an unintentional origin. Working on boards with materials such as paint, ink, oil and acrylic sealant  or photographs of marks on the floor, wall or from nature such as clouds and dirt, the purpose is to use the materials and media’s own physical properties to define its form. A familiar representation such as a human form or recognisable object is then found and accentuated through digital manipulation. The importance of the textures used being of an unintentional origin being that the work intends to inspire the use of imagination and to see things for more than they appear, to not just see a wall as a wall but to see it as a canvas of infinite possibilities.
