I make objects and images inspired by my interest in our complicated and inconsistent relationship with nonhuman animals and how we think about ourselves in relation to them. Our vanity as a species leads us to think of ourselves as better than other animals, but, like many others, I question this idea. In this series of drawings a procession of self-conscious creatures parade in dramatic outfits, a suggestion that we are not any less animal than any nonhuman. Perhaps viewers will recognise themselves in the catwalk grace of these draped beings. I’ve always loved drawing in watercolour. It is harder to control than other drawing media and so produces more surprising results.

I am a South African artist based in Cape Town, South Africa. I lectured in Sculpture in Johannesburg before moving to London in 2007. I returned to South Africa in 2020. My work reflects my concern with our emotional dependence on the natural environment, and our conflicted and inconsistent relationship with other animals. I am preoccupied with the idea, reflected in my artistic practice, that we suffer some kind of emotional disruption when we are inattentive and don’t recognise our duty of stewardship to the natural world of which we are a part. The result is internal, or emotional, chaos - individual or collective - in the human world which is expressed in external crises; in environmental destruction, for example. My work is included in numerous private and public collections, including the Johannesburg Art Gallery, The Durban Art Gallery, The UNISA (University of SA) Art Gallery, The SA Reserve Bank, Standard Bank Collection, WAM (Art Museum of the University of the Witwatersrand).
