My practise involves thinking about the perimeter of the medium, and considering how an idea/signal can change as it travels through disparate disciplines. I feed output from one process into another, creating arrays of constellated idea fragments, observing the ways in which they interact as modular units. I often begin with writing a recipe. The recipe might involve instructions for a painting or video, which is photographed, printed, scanned, animated, manipulated, described, destroyed, looped, remixed. An important aspect of my practise is arranging images and objects in two and three dimensions and selecting appropriate permutations. At each node the work exists in a tangible way, and exhibiting a version of it becomes an opportunity for the work to be refined into a form that can produce more effective offspring. This can be directly - using material from a present work to make future work - or indirectly - configuring the work to be seen, naming it, and dedicated/active observation leads to new thoughts, ideas, recipes.
