My practice is an exploration of the evolving relationship between self, nature, and landscape—unfolding through the act of painting. I explore the intricate connections between art and the environment, drawing on both traditional and contemporary Western painting languages to create a dialogue between the visual and the ecological.
Employing slow, pre-industrial craft techniques, I emphasise process as a form of meaning. The materials I work with become metaphors—rooted in place, shaped by time, and rich with physical presence. Through this approach, I seek to reimagine the bond between material, making, and the land from which both emerge.
