“Why are we conscious?” Through a mix of abstract sculpture, painting and meticulous research, I try and describe the most abstract of concepts. My delve into what makes us human at the most fundamental levels, has been incredibly enlightening for me. I aim to push this way of thinking on the world as way of bringing us all together. We are all essentially the same, a chance array of billions of identical particles fused in an eternal cycle of energy. Out of their 13 billion years of existence, your particles happened to choose this infinitesimally small portion of time to form and entangle, enabling you to be here now. If that isn’t a cause for peace and celebration, nothing is. I try to allude to this point in every aspect of my work.
