BAppA   Dip A&C (Hons)

It is a real honour for me to be part of the creative and inspiring team here at TLC!

I graduated with a Dip A & C (Hons) from The Learning Connexion in 2006 and went on to study both Fine Art at Massey University and Applied Art at Whitireia Polytechnic gaining a degree from the latter and still chipping away at the former.

I am interested in all levels and experiences of art and find it hard to pin my practice down to a particular style or genre.

Concepts and site are important to me and often inform the choice of medium or format of the work.  Therefore I work across a range of media from large structural/architectural sculpture, performance and installation to watercolour drawings and anything in between. I guess I am still finding my feet, exploring and developing my own philosophies. I hope I can continue in this state for a long time!
