ARTIST’S STATEMENT
Words inspire, give vision, shape our beliefs and drive our behaviour.
Some of the power comes from the words themselves and some comes from the emotion and intensity in which we use them.
Collages of handwritten recipes or scrabble tiles invoke positive memories, while superheroes allow us to embrace our inner child, escape into our imagination. Intertwined the message and background provide powerful reactions.
Using words purposefully is one way to shift the energy we bring into our lives.
