Installation

My work covers area like urban art e.g. artworks set in and around the city, emphasising environmental problems, social issues like homelessness, alcoholism or just +found objects, around us, installations about subjects, which trouble or fascinate me, environmental art in the countryside, which I document with photographs since it is ethereal and meant to perish and least of all photography and painting, which for me go hand in hand and are not separate art forms like they are usually regarded...

For the past 10 years I have been artistic director of a contemporary community art project in Glastonbury, Somerset. I have recently moved to west London and am hoping to find a premises to continue this project. Meanwhile I would like to meet anyone interested in working with me.

Over the past 7 years I have been making various types of paintings and experimentations, and since graduating in 2005 and have been focusing on simplifying a group of paintings in my studio in London. All of them are based on the premise that paint is better wet than dry; a common assumption of painting is that you paint a picture and the paint should dry. I have always seemed to want to challenge this assumption. I have always been interested in the process of a painting and the life of paint, from its state in a tube or can, to its mark onto a surface. I am not interested in re-inventing painting but like to look at what has been and what I can do that might be different. All my paintings begin with a drawing and I see this as a very important process which helps me to free my mind of ideas. In the studio I try to have as few rules as possible, I think more like the type of work I don’t want to make and start from there. I believe that the fewer the rules I have the more ideas and accidents I encourage. I think everyone and everything can be vulnerable and my paintings are no different. I try to give them an element of fear and caution. I have always wanted to have the idea that a painting can live on - literally. That it can move with us, at the same speed. It can change its mind, change direction, disappear, live and die all at once. ..
