Artist Statement
My mixed media paintings explore the relationship of memory and place, both geographical and emotional. It veers into the realm of dreams and fairy tales and imagines a topography of memory, what is visible and what lies beneath. Using family papers, photographs and letters as an underpainting, these memories are embedded in the landscape both literally and figuratively.
