The other side of the practice.

Dream Time is where the rest of my work begins. A space rooted in dreamwork, where the randomness of the subconscious becomes a kind of language. Even when the outcome of a dream looks nothing like the life around it, I have come to trust that it is still saying something.

These paintings are how I listen back. Each one is its own work, an individual fragment of psyche, but the way they arrive is the same: slow, intuitive, channelled rather than designed. They give context to my motivations and let the unspoken parts of a project surface before the project knows it needs them.

This place in my practice is something I don't like to identify or describe. It is more a feeling-led channelling, opening doors to new thoughts, themes and subconscious pursuits of what I am trying to create. I read these works somatically rather than putting words to them, and I'd like anyone viewing them to do the same, to let each one speak in its own way.
