About

I am a London and Glasgow based artist, recently graduating from The Glasgow School of Art.

My work reflects and explores the properties of colour, with the aim to disorder compositions of images that already exist into a new and structured system. What is revealed during this process is a weaving together of what you expect to see and what you did not. My focus is on how colours interact with each other in creating a new, rhythmic image that celebrates the intricacies of colour relationships rooted in traditional and contemporary colour theories.
The conclusion of my main practice presents itself in the form of grid-like oil paintings which explore the varying vibrant possibilities of colour including hue, saturation and brightness. I am interested in what can happen to an image when it is taken from its original source and reproduced with the single concern for colours’ properties away from the restrictions of representational form.

My relationship with colour stems from my experience with hearing loss and the peace I find in controlling my visual sense, where sound is illustrated and not heard. This system I have created allows for a visual focus and a personal physical immersion into the act of painting where comfort is found in repetition of a physical and mindful act. Where the spirit can be fulfilled in a communication of colour alone.
