Expression
I have a blind minds eye, therefore for me imagination is a conceptual abyss.
For my artistic visual journey I mainly use a semi representational approach for rendering the figure or subject of a piece to give it some focus, and then explore the complications and colour schemes within and around the intended theme of the work.
I am quite interested in finding a way of expressing the glimpses of memories that my level of aphantasia affords me.
My philosophical questions revolve around the puzzle of existence and how our delicate little lives with our messy emotions fit into it all.
Exposure
Available for representation.
Shows at various London art fairs announced on Instagram.
