My practice is concerned with durational multiplicity and image perception in painting, photography and audio-visual installations. I consider the physicality of painting in relation to ideas of movement, colour and space. In my video and photographic work, I explore how our (inner) and also our technological processing of images is dependent on or correlated by our physical experience of the world through body.
