About the Artist

I am interested in the notion of space. My work addresses the nature of interior spaces and the way these spaces relate to the collective unconscious. I work in a variety of different medias, focusing on drawing and video installation. I do not record actual space rather I create crude small-scale models of interior spaces, which I in turn translate into a two-dimensional panoramic film and project on a large scale.

The exploration of interior space raises questions as to how we comprehend and negotiate our everyday surroundings. I aim is to dissect the tissue of memory, place and expectation that constitute ‘authentic’ and seamless experiences of reality.

By utilising familiar elements and signifiers from the modern collective memory I aim to activate the spectator’s own memory and dreams. My works can thus be seen to operate as a proscenium for the viewer’s personal reverie. The ‘spaces in between’ are exposed and the spectator is left on a metaphorical threshold – between their understanding of actual reality and the incomprehensible and mediated nature of reality per se.
