I am a multidisciplinary artist; my practice involves painting and printmaking in an expanded field. I am concerned with the sensory potential and metamorphosis of technically mediated images.
Examining the human voice, justice, resistance and the natural world, I approach image-making as a subversive form of mapping the world. A way of navigating the unknown.
I examining the human voice as a singer. With print, sculptures and installations, I bring my voice into a new realm. Each print, a repeated image, behaves like a song. It can be reinterpreted and translated through its repetition, and in this way can transcends its original form.
