My work explores the spaces between seen and unseen, known and unknown. In Hunter’s Moon, a hand-coloured etching, I am drawn to the liminal - that fragile boundary where the physical world brushes against the metaphysical. This piece, like much of my recent work, meditates on the soul, mortality, and the invisible currents that shape human experience. Working in etching allows me to explore subtle tonal shifts and textures. My imagery often arrives like a memory or a dream, asking questions rather than providing answers. Hunter’s Moon stands as both a personal inquiry and an invitation for the viewer to consider what might be waiting just past the edge of what we know.
