Artist statement
Forms of map-making play an important part in my practice, which essentially centres around ambiguities in human perceptions of wildness and wilderness in both the urban and pastoral environment. The history and symbolism of power in both the personal and public arenas are also recurrent preoccupations, explored minutely through a wide range of media, methods and locations.
