Artist Statement
My work is about paint as a sculptural medium. I am interested in the way paint can be manipulated and transformed to create different forms and textures. By forcing a liquid medium to behave in a way that it is not inherent to its natural state I am trying to control its perception.
In my recent work, I use craft techniques such as weaving and collaging, as a way to examine and challenge contemporary issues, bringing attention to the hierarchy of art mediums and the ongoing subordination of craft. By elaborating on craft’s marginalised status in the art world, I aim to address the identity politics of “the other.”
