Current works

These pantings are representative of how my work is currently expanding, with the more recent pieces at the top navigating down to some earlier ones from 2023. A snapshot of the surreal turned into storytelling, a series of surreal expressionist artworks that feel like your unconscious come to life in a party of colour.

*Because of the nature of my process, from abstraction into found form, every piece is entirely individual and no other painting I create will ever be exactly like it. It’s also my principle to never reproduce artworks as prints or NFTs. Painting is a texturally rich medium which I believe should remain existing in the integrity of the original creation.

The quality of creativity is something I love considering. A link between the subconscious and our perceived reality. A felt Connection that can be treated as matter, moulded into tangents, and sometimes revealed. Creativity in all its arrangements is the sensory abstract attempting to be articulated in a form that transcends everyday language. Thoughts can’t be fully realised until we’ve attempted to share them. The imaginative chaos settling into comprehensible parts while remaining strange. A magical realism trying to speak to Subjectivity. You know that feeling when you wake up from an intense dream that felt full of bizarre and seemingly unrelated features? That’s your intuition making sense of your experience and turning it into an independent film that, as it existed, no one will ever see.

My practice is an attempt to reveal what’s floating around in there, engaging in narratives between reality and imagination. Beginning paintings in abstraction and allowing the work to develop its own form, I bring subconscious and conscious elements together into realised themes of dream-like obscurity, strength, and identity.
