It has been shown that by the time a child reaches the age of twelve, their creativity drops to just 12% in the majority of individuals. This is not a reflection on us as individuals, but a tragic effect the conformity of modern society has had upon us. Everything I try to achieve throughout my art is an attempt to destroy these preconceptions we form of the world around us, and open our eyes to what they are seeing. I seek to remove personification from the human body, exposing the form for what it is, rather than who it is, an entity now entirely separated from the body’s primitive purpose. Without these preconceptions we each find a far more raw emotive connection with certain, often unexpected images within the series. This is supported by my connection and deep understanding of the natural world, and the lack of modernisation here provides the foundations onto which I build many of my concepts.
