Although my work could be characterised within the genre of still life, the paintings are not necessarily about the objects they depict. To me, the true subject of the paintings, is found somewhere in the space between myself and the object. A space in which the work allows me to mediate my experience of the world and the things within that world, through paint. It is this engagement with the medium that allows me to give form to fleeting and often allusive sensations.
