LIGHT FORMS
"My art practice involves direct collaboration with living organisms including fungi mycelium, plankton, insects and plants.
I see the living world as
active, intelligent, an interconnected creative force
that nourishes and inspires my work.
Throughout the works,
light becomes paint, the flower
an extension of the canvas,
the camera my surrogate eyes.
All in an effort to capture the ephemeral hidden beauty which cannot be observed.
It is my attempt to grasp the
fleeting triumph of a blooming flower
by creating a visual memory
of what once lived.“
