Art For Me Is A

In Contact With Materials, I Can See So Much More With My Hands Than I Can Just With My Eyes. I'm A Participant, Not A Spectator. I See Myself Both As An Object And A Material, And The Human Presence Is Really Important To The Landscapes In Which I Work.

It's Frightening And Unnerving To Watch A Stone Melt.

There's A Huge Number Of Things That Are Occurring With The Ice Works Which Fascinate Me Enormously, But It's Driven By This Kind Of Frantic Race Against Time. And Whilst That Creates A Huge Amount Of Tension And Problems, It's A Tension That I Think I Feed Off.

I've Laid Down In Dried Up Streambeds, Leaving A Shadow. And Then, Five Minutes Later, It's Flash Flooded, And Where I Once Laid Is Now Running Water, Which Would've Washed Me Away, You Know? There's That Power And Danger Often In Places That Look So Calm And Pastoral To Begin With.

I Enjoy Working In A Quiet And Subversive Way.
