My practice is engaged with the idea of evolutionary theory. Predominantly an exploration in mark-making, the paintings develop an ever changing vocabulary. Earlier paintings relied on the repetition of a single and simple brush stroke to yield a mono-cultural field of grass. Over the last three years this simple process has diversified. The marks and combinations of marks form into images of a much more fantastical terrain. As the paintings adapt and change over time, each manifestation depicts an unnamable world, with the most recent works attempting to picture the future natural.
Through exhibitions and artist talks my practice examines the relationship between the visual arts, nature and the environment. It seeks covert methods through which art can impact on our current models of thinking about the natural world.
