About The Artist

Combining the ethereal quality of light, with the materiality of paint and form, my light infused painting celebrates our gregarious nature as a society. Always seeking unity and harmony, it is a contemplation of personal relationship and the language we use within such. Captivated by the energy and colour of light, I exhibited my first light sculpture / installation in 2014. This fueled my desire to infuse my painted colour with the colour of light... not as easy as I initially imagined... it took a year of experimentation before I successfully produced my first light infused 'sketch'. That same year my light sculpture 'Flirt' was long listed in the Aesthetica Art Prize, York, England (2015). Excitedly, I work with light from my studio in Nelson, New Zealand. Working concurrently between light infused painting and light sculpture. I combine traditional techniques of painting and form with the science and colour of infused physical light to produce works of art that transform with time. Earlier this year, I had work selected to exhibit digitally internationally, as a finalist in Art Venice Bienniale IV https://youtu.be/i_hg_NLMKKo as a part of The Biennale Project. I have been a full time artist since 2008.
