TRYINGTOPHRASEIT
‘For
me your work is about skin’, artist Victoria Bernie told me earlier on this
year. I was trying to describe what my work is about, at least in terms of its
enquiry. It has taken me those three infinite seconds to realize what she might
mean by that. After which the shift over the last six years from drawing to
painting to sculpture and then installation seemed to fall into place. Space
and time within a metaphysical enquiry bracketing the repercussions of the human
act are still at the heart of what my work tries to observe, document and
question. However the idea of ‘skin’ as that place where two separate entities
meet and inter-relate, provided me with a physical space where these concepts can
exist. This idea of ‘skin’ has also cohered the diverse projects that I have
undertaken over the last three years. Each project has its own statement and
response to either the site or the nature of the call but it seems that this
fascination about the interrelationship of two separate entities is the spark
and trigger how my personal angle influences subsequent work process.
