What is landscape?

A multitude of interconnected spaces

Thoughts and actions

and internal worlds

of the self.

Remnants of someplace

A haze of past encounters

Spaces and places and feelings

A river of being

and a lagoon.

I work in an expanded painting format. Paintings sometimes become sculptures, digital animations, or a mixture of things. I try to find these in-between spaces in order to challenge assumptions about what landscape is and explore what painting can be.

I'm from the Midlands, UK, but now live in the Netherlands and this influences my work as I consider the ever-present proximity of water. Wherever I stand, at least in the area of Amsterdam, I'm likely standing below sea level and should be underwater. Therefore, my work is also an outlet for rising levels of climate anxiety in relation to rising levels of water.
