Artist Statement
"
Over the last 20 years, my art practice has been at the intersection of cognition and internal contemplative practice.
I currently focus on nature as a gateway to the internal mind, and am interested in ideas concerning beauty as a deeper aesthetic, contemplative pedagogy, heart learning and cognitive diversity. My influences are many but include Francisco Varela, Elliot Eisner, John Dewey, Marion Milner, Paul Klee, Kathleen Raine and Isa Gucciardi.
Sharing the thinking behind my art is an important part of my creative process. Through self-contextualisation and self-curation, I am able to make my thinking process visible, and this is often part of my artwork. My style of working has chronologically developed through projects that have encompassed artworks relating to residencies, conferences and writings"
