My work draws upon the imagery of nature, the sciences, and the cosmos but it is not limited to a conventional reading of these realms. It imagines that the depths of the ocean reach into outer space, that through an organic prism, vision can fluctuate between the micro- and macroscopic. My practice is devoted to the natural world and its curiosities. It has been my inspiration and a place that I find meditative and complex but also mysterious. It has allowed me to continuously know more about the world we live in. I’ve been drawn to 19th century Naturalists like Ernst Haeckel: biologist, philosopher, physician and artist; Anna Atkins: botanist and photographer and Robert Fludd: cosmologist, astrologer, occult philosopher who believed that every plant in the world had its own equivalent star in the firmament which I saw as every plant has a corresponding star in the cosmos, in which direct connections were made between the microcosmic earth and the macrocosmic celestial space.
