I have consistently been concerned with the transcendental qualities of painting, with an aim to reach beyond the space that my paintings inhabit. My current research stems from a previous project which looked at the possibility of a painting having many different outcomes depending on the choices that an artist makes throughout the process of creating that work.

I am interested in how a maker interacts and moves between works. My research involves documenting this action and my intentions are to challenge our understandings and experiences of painting, test our expectations of the materials used and explore the possibility of a painting becoming an object.
