Drawing is the beginning of a transformation of the unseen into the seen. My work is essentially about the non-material. a voice that sometimes only the visual can speak, intuitions that the symbols of words often cannot convey. An attempt to capture the mystery of experience. I believe that there is a reality apart from the material world which we gain access to through contemplation.
'The decisive question for man is this: is he related to something infinite or not?' Jung
In my work I strive to capture the meaningful dialogue between my internal and external realities, which are metaphorically portrayed using imagery that I have intuitively taken from my own experience. I find that it is through the visceral nature of charcoal and paint that ideas about the internal struggle of the spirit are made manifest.
“ For the only equivalent of the universe within is the universe without” (Jung)
