Bio

My work is an exploration of time, transformation, and the delicate tension between decay and resilience. Through painting, ceramics, and sculpture, I embrace imperfection, texture, and the raw beauty of organic forms to evoke a sense of history, memory, and emotional depth. I enjoy exploring the intersections of identity, materiality, and spatial disruption, engaging with themes of masculinity, queer identity, and the performativity of the body. Through ceramics, oil painting, and photography, I examine the tensions between structure and fluidity, permanence and impermanence, and the ways in which identity is both constructed and contested within physical and conceptual spaces.

I am drawn to the fine details in nature, the breadth of land and seascapes, and the depth of human expression in portraiture. My preoccupation with contrast—between light and dark, structure and dissolution, the intimate and the vast—mirrors my exploration of identity and its inherent tensions. I approach both my work and my creative pursuits with a balance of curiosity and seriousness, always searching for the unseen details and the equilibrium of opposing emotions.

My work is also informed by my heritage and geo-identities, as well as my engagement with medical and psychoanalytic practices. These influences shape my exploration of the body as a site of negotiation, where narratives of masculinity and queerness intersect with cultural, historical, and industrial landscapes. I am particularly interested in how identities perform bodies, and how art can serve as a means of unsettling normative structures of the body.

By interrogating boundaries between control and chance, presence and absence, and representation and abstraction, my practice seeks to challenge conventional perceptions of identity and materiality, positioning art as a space for disruption, enquiry, and reimagination. 

I incorporate elements that echo geological processes, eroded landscapes, and organic growth, creating pieces that feel both ancient and alive. Whether sculpting a human figure, carving into clay, or building depth through paint, I am interested in the way materials shift, crack, and evolve—much like the human experience itself.

Through my work, I invite you the viewer to engage with these themes—to see the cracks not as flaws, but as pathways to deeper meaning, to recognise the echoes of time in the textures, and to find a quiet, contemplative space within the imperfections.
