These pieces explore the spirit inside the body, the ghost driving the muscle mass. I pulled from both personal life experiences, dreams and sudden impulses to create these works. In order to capture a sense of “finding out as we go” within the work I had to make it in that state of mind. The figures depicted could be a representation of myself, the viewer or an embodiment of the guardians within us all who manage the doorway between the known and the unfathomable– the space between awake and asleep. The large pieces depict the moment just before, during or after the passage from here to elsewhere. The small pieces are studied of daydreams i.e. the phantoms bold enough to show up in the light of day behind a suddenly closed eye.
