The work is site specific. It is produced as a response to a space or site and is concerned with place, time ,memory, history, death and beauty.
The form is often architectural and invariably uses material, daylight, and colour, as the core for the work. The site is absorbed, researched, measured, and assimilated, but ultimately the final resolve is produced from a personal experience with the space. This relationship changes as the work is evolved, hence, the final form is unpredictable. The dialogue with the space determines choice of materials, scale and form, revealing and exposing hidden and concealed aspects of the site.
The work produced exposes unseen secrets, whispers, echoes, and ghosts, and subtly amplifies them in an intimate manner. It is the result of a performance with material and space over a period of time. It is often an anxious and tense process, a tussle to find the focus and the essentials. The end result is always a surprise and a revelation to me.
The viewer brings their subjective histories to the work, thereby completing it. There is not a specific interpretation. The work acts as a catalyst; opening, uncovering, laying bare, hopefully to enable the viewer to see and feel an intimacy with, and realise, a sense of place.
