This body of work explores flight and movement. The idea of flight being associated with human aspiration for release from physical limitations is well known. Many people have experienced dreaming about flying and the sensations that these subconscious excursions evoke. My work reflects a distortion and unease in the tension between fantasy and reality through which mundane moments can become transformed and reconfigured. I engage notions of flight tracking and movement mapping of momentary forms. My process explores the relationship between the body and emotional memories (telling a story or a secret) and the way in which the conscious and the unconscious might collide in a sinister yet beautiful manner.
