Datganiad yr artist:
"It’s important to me that a painting has a frequency - a certain vibration.
A bringing together of different elements - colour, texture, form - until there is a resonance between a subconscious awareness and an external feeling of having a place in the world - and that that awareness vibrates slowly into the very distant past.
I think of this as a kind of power that sometimes others may recognise - and what’s important is the search for this kind of connection.
I have attempted to create a visual language over many years - that on the one hand is precise and visible: a language where nothing is hidden, but on the other hand is somewhere else completely. I keep looking for this resonance between the inside and the out, the point where self-identity is momentarily lost.
I imagine that I could travel around the universe so fast that I meet myself coming the other way! The envy caused by the meeting of this other ‘perfect’ being is what sends me back to the drawing board.
On a more grounded level, my work is a conversation with other art, across time and cultures." Gorffennaf 2025
