In life, there are some ineffable moments where our worldview becomes light, almost sunny. My body of work is my way of representing the feeling of these moments, recognising the simplicity of allowing ourselves to be happy. It is the joy of a memory unable to be removed or taken from you. My intent is to provide a solution to any problem that may arise. The medium is an extension of this, being permanent and unambiguous. These memories are universal, a shared humanity, a fond lens through which we view the past.
