Profile

"What intrigues me about still life is that it's essentially about an implied human presence. The way objects can create a narrative value far beyond their individual worth simply by their relationships to each other in the same space. They can even suggest a sense of place and time without anything being directly stated. Im also fascinated by the way light reacts with objects; is reflected in them, absorbed by them, passes through them. The way this interaction for most of us, consciously or not, defines the visual world around us and how we perceive any given object. What qualities make glass look like glass for example, or metal look like metal? More than this, how do I as an artist represent these interactions convincingly in paint?"
