Artist's Statement:

At the very heart of my practice lies a search for some kind of spiritual or divine order in nature, and an exploration into the empirical tensions between the ‘natural’ and the ‘artificial’. My works are essentially concerned with an investigation into organic processes and states through ‘man-made’ intervention and re-presentation of ‘landscape’.

What has manifest from my artistic explorations are a number of projects in different mediums - painting, photography, video, earthwork, installation and exhibition-making. Through my ‘Gaia Project’ video paintings I attempt to re-address the canonical imagery associated with British romantic landscape painting.
