I am preoccupied with sound, time, memory and exploring them through physical forms. The methods I use are rooted in traditions of craft which itself embodies the themes I explore. For me, working with wood is a balance between the conscious and the unconscious, with memories of learning blending into instinct and intuition.
The sculptures in my Re/cognition series physically depict the sound waves of recordings taken at Huia on the West Coast. The spiral patterns embody a sense of time that is continuous and coiled around itself, overlapping the concentric waves produced by the memory of sound.
