“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.

Infinite Connection
Wooden and acrylic mirror sculpture
50cm x 80cm x 50cm (approx.)
My work is an introspective look at our connections with infinity. The work is comprised of a hand painted wooden carving, divided in the middle with acrylic mirror panels. The reason for the mirror is to show connected infinities in untouchable dimensions. The idea that infinities and connections can “cross” dimensional space is a big part of my overall artistic concept as it could lead us to answer surrounding our own consciousness.
