Working across painting, moving image and assemblage, I consider aspects of translation, decay and technology within the order of contemporary structures. Cultivated from remnants of digital and physical environments, painterly layers of collaging, erasing and filtering become a process through which to build up surfaces that transform into present-day relics. Through colour, movement, fragmentation and recognition, I call into question facets of the self that are visibly disappearing or growing from the debris of the present. Intermediate states of expiration and resurrection are unveiled in a world without centre.
