I use collage in my work as it gives me the flexibility that no other medium has succeeded to achieve. I can easily move the ‘cut colours' around the support, thus enabling me to maintain an intuitive and visceral creative process.

No subject is decided before starting each collage, rather I am looking for a physical response from the artwork. My goal is to create a feeling of balance that enhances physical and psychological wellbeing. A place of solace in an overcrowded and complex world.
