My work deals with the image/ object as a fragment of a traumatic event. Through the process of re-generation (copy of a copy), he attempts to suspend movement into a repetition of a moment. Inspired by the fragility of narrative structures, memory and desire, he transforms the improvised passing of fragmented moments into a pattern, plot or mythos, using rhythm, rupture and the juxtaposition of texture, image and pattern to analyse meaning.
Influenced by Russian constructivism, 196os Minimalist Sculpture and post-colonialist theory, I appropriate the medium of ceramics and mixed media to revise, re-evaluate and re-contextualise the artifacts of identity. The work migrates and mediates between the minimal and the excessive to investigate the beauty of the accidental, memory and the desire for something lost or taken away.
