“My recent work explores themes of beauty, order and perception. I focus on capturing and formalizing our connection to ‘balance’ and how one might achieve this through the use of positive and negative spatial conditions. My works are built from a self-created Alphabet which contrasts a circle to a square and rigorously explores all the possibilities within these two shapes. I aim to extract beauty from familiar geometries, generating forms with no beginning, middle or end - and inviting people to see from all sides and distances, to sit and more deeply contemplate their own pathways to visual awareness.”
