Minipainting on mounted plywood, painted around the edges as if it is a little object. I call this series of work "Little boxes of happiness" simply because they are really cute. Inspired by Phillip Pullman's book, "The Subtle Knife", which is a book I read as a child which made a huge impact on me. I imagined what it would be like if you could cut a section of space out from another reality. In this painting, the blobs and marks continue around the painting as if suggesting the depth of this other world. Not just an image but an object! The painting does not have a string on the back, it is hollow on the back designed to rest on top of two horizontally aligned screws or nails. Signed and numbered on the back.

Painting is an essential part of my being; a painting to me is not only an image but a physical material object, which embodies traces of its process of production. My abstract work is material-based and process-led: it explores the notion of layering from both a conceptual and material standpoint. My painting process is a cathartic dialogue with the materials, which involves building and unearthing translucent coatings of oil paint and varnish onto plywood, paper and canvas. The resulting paintings are a trace of that dialogue. Through painting, I am the cartographer of a journey through an internal, perhaps imagined, landscape; where each painting acts as a section of an extended landscape that could perhaps exist beyond the frame. The work is playful and colourful, explosive and pensive; poetically confrontational shapes flow between each other, like the meeting of two or more worlds, folding and colliding. My painting practice is influenced by my intimate one-to-one performance art work, which involves sensory drawing as a performative act, as well as by my fascination with cartography. I am interested in how mark-making can be used as a way to map layers of subjectivities in relation to space, place and the body. My current project “Unmapping” is both inspired by and acts as an inspiration for my painting practice. It involves leading workshops on collaborative drawing and using participatory cartography as a tool for mining stories and memories to capture abstract images of personal or imagined geographies.
