"Collage polarises—
you either get it or you don’t. Making art in other ways I feel hamstrung by my limited technical expertise and imagination. The magic of collage or the trick is to find a way to enter into a meditative collaboration. I have to spend
time each day cutting and loosely sorting. Carefully avoiding reading captions or trying to recognise people and events as this will influence the outcome. I feel exhilarated when just two pieces make a whole new story. Unpleasant childhood experiences seem to guide and produce compositions of the ‘uncomfortable and strangely familiar imagery’ kind."
