The measure of a disorder of a system strategically defines my current art practice. My work is essentially a dialogue about the language of paint; working with colour and gesture, creating a controlled internal order on the canvas surface; when colour and touch are aligned the work attempts a dialogue with the viewer, an utterance on the nature of identity.

“… One day I would cross a threshold into an enormous park, an endless and beautiful park; in this park one ingenious invention would succeed another. Plants and music would follow in lovely mathematical alternation, delightful to the ear and answering to the utmost notions of delicacy; but this park was not there to be used, or wandered about in, because it consisted of a thousand and one small and miniscule square and rectangular and circular islets, pieces of lawn, each of them so individual that I would be unable to leave the one on which I was standing. In each case, there is a breadth and depth of water that prevents one from hopping from one island to another in my imagining. On the piece of grass which one has reached, how is a mystery, on which one has woken up, and where one is compelled to stay, one would finally perish of hunger and thirst. One’s longing to be able to walk through the whole park is finally deadly.” (Thomas Bernhard, Frost, trans. Michael Hofmann, Random House, 2008.)
