My Art practice explores the human condition, more specifically the philosophical and psychological “hard problem” of human consciousness.The 'conscious-self', the subjective quality of experience i.e the raw feelings associated with our mental lives, in philosophical terms, its 'qualia'. The work shown is part of an ongoing series of work over the last three years. Each portfolio is a response to thoughts and ideas proposed by various philosophical and psychological points of view, with regards to 'consciousness' and what it really means to be a conscious self. My current portfolio 2015 is a reflection on death and our denial thereof as conscious beings. Scientists boldly declare 'philosophy' is dead, but if all is 'matter', how does one explain and understand 'the conscious self'? My challenge is to produce work that resonates with an emotive response to the reflection.
