Presence and Absence (2020)

This project is a process driven exploration into the theme of presence and absence as powerful forces within our lives, fundamental to our understanding of ourselves and our place in the world. Presence and absence play a part in describing who we are, what we hold onto and what we have lost, what is seen and what is unseen, reminding us of the fragility of life and the human condition.

My practice seeks to capture not only a moment in time, but also what is behind, around and ahead, connecting fragments of images to try to see beyond the immediately visible through the use of non-traditional mark making and materials.
