My main concern is turning the studio into an<br />

experimental, shifting, space where knowledge is<br />

grown through the testing of various media and<br />

materials. What I do is informed by science and the<br />

approaches of the laboratory, I attempt to create<br />

situations where ideas can be tried and tested. As a<br />

st<strong>art</strong>ing point to this I often create sculptures<br />

through found objects and find ways to<br />

communicate these back through performance and<br />

sound. I’m interested in working with sound and<br />

electromagnetism as a way to create active tools for<br />

thinking about the body in a physical space, of both<br />

the <strong>art</strong>ist and viewer, and the continued vanishing<br />

line between the two.<br />
