| About the Artist | |
As a painter, I work in diverse media - celebrating transience, inadequacy and the contradictions of a commodified world. My subject is the ambivalence of experience - terror and wonderment in a human heart. My aesthetic is that of the humble postcard. My work, scribbled messages both platitudinous and profound, snatched from the frontline of the prosaic. "Weather still changeable, wish you were here". Irony is key in an oeuvre which explores the interface between raw, felt experience and a mediated world of shrink-wrapped ideas and bite-sized epistemologies. If collage is the lingua franca of post modernism, it is also my Franglais. In a world without answers, my work neither seeks completion nor finds resolution. This is a contemporary collage where you can still 'see the joins' and it is essential that you do so. That is where the art is. You are invited into a landscape stolen from Heidegger's "World As Exhibition" where juxtaposed images combine to form alluring, imaginary worlds, which you may enter at your peril. |

| Education and biography | |
| An age ago I graduated with a BA in English from Bedford College - London University. Somewhat later, much later, I achieved a Distinction on my Art & Design Access course at Ware Regional College. I then studied for a BA in Fine Art at the University of Hertfordshire, finally graduating with a First Class Honours Degree. Since 2000, I have exhibited frequently in France and the United Kingdom, most recently in the Edinburgh Festival 2008 at the esteemed Total Kunst Gallery. |
