I am an emerging visual artist in which my practice is realised through drawing, sculpture, video and live data feeds. The materials that I use range from the commonplace everyday objects, domestic and commercial in nature. My inquiry into the temporal engagements within a specific environment are realised through assembled artefacts and hybrid forms of technologies. I aim to explore the extensions of the intrinsic nature of the varying default life-states through a series of modulations. Visual representation of these archived data inputs are thus translated via digital and analogue technology. 

In an ongoing series of projects, I explore the experimental reading of temporality and the unintentional phenomenal in the ordinary, readily available everyday materials. As a consequence this investigation reveals unsubscribed poetic, sublime and metaphorical aspects of the human condition that is determined by the inherent constant state of flux. This human condition is affected by internal and external influences and it is represented by me via audio visual inputs. I am constructing realities from conventional materials thus transforming the ordinary and making it a spectacular. These unprocessed visual documentations are communicated on a large scale. By focusing in on the inherent cause and effects in which I instigate with these common elements, these situations are beyond my control and as a result play out to their own volition to a finite causality.
