Transpiring through large scale drawings and installation, my work gently contemplates themes of duality, transformation, mortality, and folklore. Representational images of nature tangled together form tangible metaphorical allegories. Informed by self reflection, these drawings whisper details about seen or unseen tensions found throughout the natural world and human nature.
The materiality of building up single graphite pencil strokes or monochromatic coloured pencil on paper, elevate the ephemeral vulnerability of each piece. While the handmade brass nails, partially exposed through the paper, are a reminder of the gentle harshness found in nature. These spectral renditions tangle and float together, unknowingly suspended and isolated in no specific space or time. They are beautiful, strange and precarious, filled with tenderness and self destruction.
