Art is my laboratory for developing collaborative methods, constructive solutions to many of the problems that keep us from working well together.
Collaboration does influence the end art product.
Through the collaborative process, my work has become a living image that changes with input from others yet my own particular touch is evident in each piece. Often I design and build the basic then others add their images or ideas. Development and balance is worked out within the collaborative process. In my exploration of human behaviour, memory and desire, I often am attracted to those shadowlands inbetween morality and primal instincts, that which both fascinates and repulses us. Through both a visual and tactile level, my work srtives to a evoke a more intuitive or instinctive response and a visceral dialogue with my audience that has been absent in many of my previous pieces.
