My mode of image making is resolutely representational. Rooted in a fixation on fantasy and the fantastic, I express ideas concerning transmissions of knowledge demonstrating fluid or floating identities. This geographical 'transmission', both religious and aesthetic, marks a shift from the psychedelic to the gothic. Imagining the arabesque ceiling to be an early form of computer generated fractal image, everything folding in on itself in an ever-complexifying geometric ecstasy.

Folk stories and early religious mythology are the basis of visual allegory delineating the burden of aesthetic lineage. The in-between place is the dwelling of the work. The subjects are often depicted in a moment of enlightenment, always seeking to attain or become. An interest in animism, the evil eye, Sufi theology and ritual and Medieval takes on representation, have lead to the adoption of a lexicon of images and a fascination with the averted gaze.
