[IN PROGRESS]

C H A S M S

Dreamscapes, reflections, and the granite sobriety of consciousness. Our perceptions of mortality, loss, and the complexities of human suffering, beauty, and dignity.




W A T E R S T A I N S

The taint of humanity on something we perceive as pure, clean and natural. New Zealand river water, earth, watercolour and ink embedded in French milled cotton.




C A S S É E S | W A I R U A

We fracture ourselves, we fracture others, we fractured our land, we fracture our ancestry, and we fractured our future.

Explorations of beauty and entropy.



P S Y C H R O S I S

Totems whose forms reflect a fragmented consciousness. Artefacts of a lost mind.




D U S T M E C H A N I S M

Momento Mori to dirt and desires.
