After many years of creating representative pieces and developing technique and personal style, I now find myself uncontrollably delving into the form of conceptual art. I have a passion in responding to current affairs, exploring philosophical ideals and looking deeply into what affects the people of my generation, situation and state of mind. A lot of my pieces have a socio-political comment which often result in ideas that encompass grand proposals and ambitious final idea realisations including installation and performance pieces. I enjoy working with a great attention to detail and like to incorporate subtle, and often ironic statements.
I would say that I am most influenced by events and changes in our modern society and like to work in a relatable format, inspired by artists who reach out to audiences of all ages and backgrounds and break down the idea that art is just for the elite or wealthy. I understand that it is an exciting time for artists and how art is being perceived and I find this as stimulating as the radical changes we are facing such as technological advances, environmental issues and political and spiritual practice.
I feel that, through this course I will be able to refine the way in which I execute my ideas and develop useful skills of articulation and organisation. I'm excited to be surrounded by motivational peers with interests in the same areas as me, but also to engage with and learn from the new and different views of others.
