I have always been attracted by the ethereal and the ephemeral. I am not sure why that is, but early in my career it lead me to work with light and projection. I love the quality of light, something so present, impactful and vital, yet so elusive, transient and non-substantial. Later on in my work, the ephemeral took a more protagonist role with the creation of nonevasive  land art installations and intervaentions, land art which works in harmony with the natural environment, art which fades, deteriorates, evolves. Land art is something which I am still exploring and loving.

 

I found in practice, from the age of 17 when I was studying at Chelsea, that almost all my work needed to belong to, or needed to be created for a particular place. This is something which accompanied me throughout my studies and career. Naturally, I see my work as site-specific art, Public Art, Land Art or work that is tied aesthetically, historically, culturally, and/or environmentally to a specific location. 

 

In my community based public art work, I am passionate about working with groups from variable backgrounds, with common denominator  the lack of, or need for visual art. Visual art that can play a vital, positive role in their daily life.  

 

Teaching for me is more about learning. Every time I leave an art class or workshop I have held, I am more knowledgable and more understanding, I have evolved.
