Artist’s Statement
I appropriate windows and use them as a surface for combining drawing, painting and collage techniques. I’m exploring the nature of our domestic landscapes – the façades we put up and the skeletons we hide in our closets. Peering through my windows, the viewer gets a glimpse of nightmarish scenes in which lives are played out.
