A mixed media fine artist exploring the relationship between video, print and sculpture. He is currently studying an MFA in Fine Art at the University of Southampton.

As an artist, his practice is concerned with questioning the role of video, print and sculpture in art. Through the use of sculptural narrative, his film works transcend the screen and become a product of the sculpture. The sculptural narrative often considers its filmic counterpart in its creation by mapping out the conclusion before the film has been placed in the environment. Consequently the video works represent the action prior to the resulting conclusive sculpture or the complete dichotomy.

By the very act of presenting the video in conjunction with the sculpture, a visuo-sculptural relationship is created whereby the act and the conclusion are together as one object. This visual literacy is echoed in all of the 2011 works and is expected to advance in further works, challenging the concept in different ways. His works rely heavily on the use of monitors as a sculptural object, questioning whether film should be considered a form of active sculpture, much like David Nash’s nature based works that form their own narrative using coincidence and opportunity in reality, his sculptures metaphorically create themselves as they are viewed.

His works in print focus on expressing these processes and outcomes in the form of frozen image, acting as a mediative point between video and sculpture, tentatively describing the landscape create by pixel based imagery and often focussing on process driven, abstract thought.
