About The Artwork
Day 5......was the day full of intensity. In the space of 5 hours I have experienced a great inner joy and happiness of being alive but also an intense feeling of horror and of being threatened by people as well as the force of nature. I have seen and felt the beauty and horror at the same time. I have walked through silent bogs, with only bird song echoing over it in an irregular sound. I walked in a majestic deep forest. I climbed a mountain through a dead forest and was followed by a 'dodgy' man while clutching my knife in my hand ready to defend myself. When I reached the top of mountain I got caught in a thunder storm and hale stone with lightening flying all around my head. I crawled down paths that had turned into streams and bogs. Slipped and cut my leg open. Kept walking. Saw rainbow. Then the sun came out. I went to sleep in a meadow watching the brooding skies and the clouds swirling around the mountain I have climbed earlier. I felt comforted by the fact there is no human soul within 20 mile radius around me. I also felt incredibly scared and overpowered by solitude and my own mortality.

Through my work I touch on the subtle and intuitive part of life. Those things we all feel, go through and see all around us, often without giving them much notice, attention or importance. I am interested in exploring the connection and relationship between culture and nature and the human inner and outer experience within it. I use many different materials and means of creative expression (performance, film, sculpture and installation) and it is this concept that unites the whole body of work. Myths, folklore, fairytales as well as my life experiences and everyday observations all inform my practice. The materials and their combinations I use in my work often say more than one can see at the first sight. I carry out an extensive research into their symbolic meanings, connections and uses in culture. Symbolism is very important in my work as I believe that primal imagery and symbols hold a great power of communication which is understood by all people regardless of their language, nationality, age or education. I try to reach out to people on a subconscious and emotional level.
