Artist Statment 

My research investigates patterns. Patterns found from the every day to patterns found in nature to the unseen world of the microscopic. I look for the relationships between these patterns to understand the meaning of our reality. My investigations have led me to areas such as fractals, feedback loops, cymatics, (the visualisation of sound) and geometry.

 

More recently my focus has turned to digital physics and the possibility that we are living in a virtual world. Could patterns

be a way of storing data? Providing evidence that we are in an information based reality.
