My work deals with time, movement and space. I try to illustrate movement through time, not by recreating what was there but by having the past occupancy of the space made visible. My work shows an absence, while materialising a thing’s ex-presence by using space as a tool for recording.
I try to achieve this because I feel there is a lingering time-diluted presence left behind in a used space. I want to capture that space to create something that has a permanency at present that is in partnership with the past.
Loss plays a large part as I find myself holding onto these potentially lost moments that maybe only I have witnessed. My work becomes the memory and tribute of that time and space.
