Abstract works
2023 — 2025:

These pieces were created using mark-making techniques that combine oils, acrylic house paints, dyes, glue, wax, bleach and other solvents. The paint is applied using dying techniques, squeegees, palette knives, paint scrapers, rags, and directly by hand. This creates thick, viscous oceans of psychedelic colours - and within them, hidden worlds that evoke dreams, ghosts and memories.

The physicality of how the mixed media is applied combines elements of action painting and process art, invoking abstract expressionism and neo-Dadaism. The resulting fabrics are then stretched, collaged or draped onto other canvases and linens and hung in and around timber frames, often blurring the line between 2D painting and 3D sculpture.
