“I want the following word: splendor, splendor is fruit in all its succulence, fruit without sadness. I want vast distances. My savage intuition of myself.”
― Clarice Lispector, The Stream of Life

there is nothing. The happening is totally independent of me. there is no wanting only pure and unfettered dreaming or desiring. I am letting go of everything i perceive, including my own suffering.

There are many periods through which the artist has explored through drawing, sculpture, painting and printing a series of themes. For many years the main thematic was based around family, body, identity. the psychology of family, the relationship with mother father brother informed most of the middle period of work. This has now made way for an exploration of the boundaries of understanding, the rational and the immediate. The whole trajectory has been accompanied and informed by an ongoing study of the psyche.

Self taught artist of colour and words. Beyond words, through into the sweet unknown.
