Of Another Space

I am interested in exploring higher spatial dimensions which are conceived to exist although we cannot have direct experience of them. I am visualising a world beyond the conventional physical dimensions of space within which we exist, which also embraces notions of alternative time and space.

In these artworks I present visualisations of spaces which would otherwise only exist as an idea or concept, to create images of a higher dimensional world by threading shapes and forms through spaces that, while they exist within the space defined by the picture’s edge, can yet appear to exist beyond its surface boundaries.

Images revealed beneath surfaces are spaces as if encountered at different times.

**Untitled**
A notion of layering is explored in this painting, the sense of uncovering earlier experiences by looking through the lattice of what is visible upon or what appears beyond the surface.

Lights and Reflections

Both ‘Yukimi’ and ‘Sky Tree’ depict my experience of looking up into the sky with light filtering through and reflecting upon surfaces – of trees, leaves, etc. – the reflection being expressed by light reflected from gold leaf.
