 ‘I use the figure and complex human behaviour to guide me in creating my own gestural language. The repeated rendering of hands in the work symbolises connection: touch; holding, grabbing, pushing, leaning, as well as the importance I hold in the act of making. Hands are signifiers of emotion, an important part in my cast of figures, like actors on a stage. Together, distorted, they question different types of relationships through their psychophysical connections, to portray and decipher complex human behaviour and the power dynamics that rule us.’
