Selected CV & Artist Statement
 

My work often circulates themes of the domestic relationship between my parents. Sparked off by negative emotional experience and fuelled by obsession, this work adopts a cathartic role. Through documentation I use sculpture, drawing, photography and film to represent these emotions. I am fascinated by standardization, repetition, routine, and my own obsessive behaviour. Through these observations and representations of my family, I not only unravel further edges to their identity, I also unravel mine.
