My work explores the relationship between the co-operation of the senses and human consciousness; how humans interact with the world and in particular recording my interaction with the world through video, sound, sculpture, and installation and then creating an unusual way of viewing that world. When we interact with our environment, we use our senses to navigate not only our outside world but also our inside world. Our perceptions of our outside world can be altered by what is occurring in our inside world; our emotions, learnt behaviors, memories and everything that makes us human. As an artist I explore the relationship between the body, technology and nature by challenging the senses and perception of the viewer. By exploring the way humans interact with the world around them, I create multi-sensory installations using video and sound, how the video can be used as a medium and how the audience themselves become the medium and process for my discovery.
