Arts with Purpose

   My art practice began in photography and ceramics over 40 years ago. Today I employ a variety of expressive forms often using unorthodox materials, forcing me to adopt non-traditional techniques. This results in a more open-ended process, sending me on a journey of enquiry and exploration.

   I am inquisitive and I have an obsessive drive to create. Currently the result is work that ponders a future with artificial intelligence, wearable technology, embeddable implants and human augmentation. With technology’s ability to accelerate tasks and production, I am worried by the inability of humans to manage the current pace of life and its extreme excesses.  In reaction, I can often be found rummaging recycling stations and landfill sites for materials to reuse and repurpose into my art forms.
