Body of work - Our liminal state

My work here offers us a glimpse of the space in which we, in the physical body, exist - in the presence of something earthly and the surroundings of the eternal. We subside in this liminal space between consciously existing and non-existence   from the moment we are born.
 If we are condemned to life we are simultaneously obligated to be free from the structures imposed upon us because we are primitively constructed as ourselves, with the liberty to become ourselves.
 In the paintings we can now begin to choose, for ourselves as individuals, what it is we want to see, to believe, without a pre-conditioned or pre-existent element of choice – we may now begin to question, or we will forever dwell in the liminal shadows of nothingness.
