Urban Madness…

Back to the reality of our concrete and often colourless world where animal kingdoms are dominated and controlled by humans.

Dream Passage…

Stepping back into reality from my dream world.

Industrial Nature…

Whilst I sit in the comfort of the natural world, the industry looms over bringing a darkness to nature.

Cemetery in the Woods…

A symbolic image of those I have lost and a gentle place for thinking, away from the chaos of life, while being overlooked by my Guardian Angel.

My Peace…

Also known as Daisy Woods, My Peace shows my cat and I in a peaceful woods surrounded by daisies symbolic of my desire for peace away from the pain, drama and stresses of reality.

This series was created in 2012 in response to a project titled ‘Black and white with colour’ which came at a time where I was embarking on a new phase in my life. I wanted to channel this through self-portraiture and used the opportunity to start exploring mixed media processes.

Craving my own space to get clarity on my identity, I used locations, objects and animals that were of personal significance on my journey. Creating images that symbolised where I needed to be in life to find myself once more.

The layered images deliberately have a cut and paste collage effect, very much reflecting my fragile state of mind and the reality of life getting in the way of hopes, dreams and desires.
