Mask Painting

As a multifaceted artist with roots in Denmark and New Zealand, my childhood was a cosmopolitan upbringing across England, America, and Australia. I’ve made work that is a testament to a life rich in diverse experiences and disciplines. My background in film, design, and animation laid the foundation for an artistic journey which has since evolved to encompass energy therapy, death doula practices, multifaith ministry, land healing, biodynamics and astrology. My paintings are a fusion of languages and disciplines, weaving together elements of physics, cosmology, energetics, spirituality, mysticism, personal transformation, metaphysics, alchemy, and multidimensionality. This work draws deeply from the stories of the land and its spirit, reflecting my profound connection to sacred sites and the big skies and bush that I was exposed to in my early childhood in Australia, and more recently those I encountered scrambling through the woods rivers and mounds of the Ley lines of Somerset and it’s powerful Celtic counterparts. This artistic process has been one of deep exploration and synthesis, requiring extensive time and introspection to connect with myself, the elements, and the wisdom that emerges from listening to the land and cosmos. My work often transcends the personal, tapping into deeper levels of understanding and vision and intuiting the collective. Culminating all of this, I'm in the process of formulating these images into an oracle deck, inspired by years of studying various forms of divination such as IChing, tarot, and runes. My approach represents a new kind of modality—a fusion of personal expression, collective zeitgeist and the voice of land and spirit, designed to activate deeper wisdom and facilitate inward teaching. My intention is to assist individuals in accessing their unique soul paths in coherence with sky and earth energies. The artworks serve as a bridge between worlds, lifting veils and challenging our sperceptions of self, our masks, and our programming to ignite transformation. Each of these artworks is a piece of a larger narrative, yet each stands powerfully on its own. In my own space, I arrange them dynamically, shaping the flow of energy and sparking a dialogue between the inner and outer worlds. This mindful interaction with the art enhances its transformative power.
