The objects I make are ‘self-referential’: they are made to exist as visualisations of the experience of the making process; of the meditative state of creativity which I feel. The painstaking, time-consuming accuracy required for the crafting of my work is evidenced through each physical element which makes up the final object: each stripe in the painting, each sheet of stencilled graph paper, each tiny cube.
As a Buddhist, I use the experience of meditating to enhance and aid the process of making and the work I make. Consequently, the fashioning of my work becomes a form of meditation which is, in turn, reflected in the physical reality of the object itself.
