Using materials usually applied to drawing and collage I construct rapid installations. Paper and cotton transform the gallery into a new environment into which the audience can enter. With a limited palette of material and colour the sense of space and place is altered creating new and imaginary surroundings. The work contains a sense of a captured moment held briefly in a quivering state. A familiar and domestic atmosphere is evoked but with an underlying, charged uncertainty, leading to a paradoxical sense of the known and unknown. Light illuminates the spaces casting shadows that entwine the gallery with the new interventions.

The low-tech construction methods are not concealed; the hand made and resourceful approach to the realisation of these structures is an integral element. The work’s flaws and imperfections point to the labour and the precariousness of the structures reflect their fragility. The work has a raw, exploratory feeling.

The installations are conceived as three dimensional, gestural drawings with core concerns of light, space, movement, and time. There is an interest in process with the repetition of a line, mark, or cut creating a flow in the work by which it gradually changes from one form to another with the feeling that this flux creates endless possibilities of reinvention.
