MA work

Select, measure, mix, pour, mould, bake, smell, cut and savour…

What is our common understanding of colours? How do colours and emotions affect each other? The kitchen has always been an exciting place; for me it is a creative environment where I conduct my exploration of colours and textures. I select my ingredients from memories, trying to identify the weight and colours of our complex emotions. I create conceptual associations between objects and images through a diverse range of media. I am seeking a harmony of colour and meaning to spark the imagination.
