SeaForms

I am inspired by intertidal ecosystems - this ever-changing habitat with wave-swept rocky shores and tidal pools informs my work.

I am interested in the dynamic contrasts between strength and fragility, growth and deterioration, beauty and the grotesque that I see animated in this foreshore region.

I create mixed-media collages based on these concepts, layered with my imagination and perceptions of this foreshore region. I manipulate materials which yield results that echo the shapes and patterns I discover and observe in this marine environment.
