Artist statement
I am a multidisciplinary artist, performer and improviser whose practice began with sound. An interest in the idea of intuition underpins my current work. Intuition as an intelligence – a complex tangle of ideas that cannot be immediately unpacked but work as a shortcut, enabling one to instantly decide and act, and carrying both positive and negative potential. Two further related threads also run through my earlier work: firstly, an interest in the potentially transformative power of art and its commonalities with therapy; secondly, a concern with communication and muting, with bringing out possible hidden or subjugated messages.
