'I am interested in creating spaces that explore the constant change of our perception depending on our emotional states and physical perspectives. I explore this through the use of colour layering, reflections and the passage of time. Slowly, as the colours emerge, a sense of depth is revealed. As the viewer’s physical perspective changes, the reflections work to hide areas and light penetrates to expose new colours, resulting in a change in perception of the work'.
