The idea of echoing and rippling provided a starting point and focus for me to begin the work, creating images that engage with abstraction and repetition of form. The use of repeated forms suggests transmission, communication, and compounded impact on the environment. It seems to me that one of the big hurdles in enacting personal change is the notion that one’s own actions are too small – one feels insignificant, and this leads to despondency and inaction.

I aim to create work that generates emotional responses from the community, creates personal connections, and engages with these issues in a lasting manner.
