There's a generative material relationship between the material and the image that comes up.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My works look to how images are produced, but specially based upon how the material reacts.
It's kinda all about image.
So to me it's very similar in terms of trying to distill within the image, those elements that are gonna form, hopefully, a compelling visual statement.
A number of images put together a certain way become something quite above and beyond what any of them are individually.
You begin with the possibilities of the material.
The text illustrates the pictures - it provides a connective tissue for me. I usually refine the text last, partly because pictures are harder to do, so it's easier to edit words - I use text as grout in between the tiles of the pictures.
An image is a stop the mind makes between uncertainties.
A visual image in the hand of an artist is merely a tool to trigger a mental image.
I'm just interested in what makes a photograph.
The way I put together images is a reactive art.
