Artist’s statement
“My art journey is a way of life, my reason for living and who I am.
The art I make also acts as a visual diary, recording the daily progression of my ideas and feelings and is the alternative language I use to communicate to others.
I try to balance the playful experimentation between ideas and materials with my precise control over them.
The pet subjects and ideas I explore through art are:
- nature’s beauty
- our fragile planet
- animals
- history and the rise and fall of cultures
- mythology
- the human body
- sociology and the human condition
- perceptions of time and death
- new discoveries in science
- the movement and sounds of nature.
In 1997 I also founded a radical new art form and process called Fibism. It underpins much of my artwork. Stay tuned for when I reveal it’s secret definition to the world….!”
