Over the past 25 years my practice has dealt with figure
transformation.
Duplicity, my current project, continues exploring
this theme underwater. Since 2002 I have been using the
shape-
shifting quality of moving water and mirrored reflections. The
challenge is to
break apart the human body only to re-assemble it
in an unfamiliar yet
extraordinary way.
Figure transformation has been a predominant theme in my work. Over the past thirty years I have been operating as a painter but employing traditional photographic tools.
I rework this canvas with a toolkit that includes clouds, reflections, plastic sheeting, cloth-encased figures as well as aperture, shutter speed and artificial lighting.
