My approach art making is an ongoing method of inquiry; its intent is to draw attention to ideas, situations and process. I cite Dadaist collage, Lazlo Moholy-Nagy and the Bauhaus tradition of experimentation as major influences.
This image is from body of work concerning an exploration of knowledge systems, combining iconic representations of religious art with anatomical studies, scientific schematics, geometrical constructions, astronomy and mathematical diagrams. It reflects my interest in current arguments between faith and technology, and the historical conflicts between science and religion.
The questions my images might elicit are of more concern to me than the answers. Questions may result in conversation; a conversation is communication, which may increase awareness or understanding - the ultimate encouragement to continue making art.
