The colour of the wire in the process is a projector behind the wire sculpture casting different colour light that is reflected in the wire figurative. The choices made with different colours of connection to different moods and feeling such example is purple being a passionate, loving depiction and to me reflects humanitarian issues. The vibrant colours even give a sort of lift to the figurative-looking wire sculptures as these unique, shaped, distorted creatures in various ones are mythical, more ing like moths and insects and even shaped into humanoids. They can be depicted as metamorphosis and change. Metamorphosis is when a creature in its life forms a transformation from an immature form to an adult form in two or more distinct stages which is like how I have been using wire in staging and process.

As an artist I enjoy using a variety of media, often experimenting with distinctive styles and tones. I use photographic images as inspiration for my paintings. I use visual images to relate to day-to-day issues that are often hard for people to express and explain, such as mental health, diversity social anxiety, and how people reflect on them in their lives. I create a non-singular vision; each work could relate to a concept or theme, which could equally stand on its own.
My ideas are grounded. However, my imagery is dimensional so others may see this as fictional. These ideas could be seen as horror, fantasy, or surrealism. I develop them further using materials, techniques, and skills that can reflect personal life and growth and how people deal with them. The technique used in my latest work gives it a cinematography look, inverting and installing the images to some classic sci-fi and groundwork movies, with imagery from the modern day. My work has a sense of being both finished and unfinished, giving the impression I cannot identify what I am seeing and feeling. I use distinctive colours and light or dark tones to distinguish myself and my surroundings.

Limitations, flaws, faith, and uncontrolled emotions are specific interests of mine, as well as my use of a variety of non-conventional media including materials and the process of the art techniques.
