About this artwork
The piece explores the dualism of Japanese culture both within its own society and its inexorable links with Western culture. Internal and external relationships are challenged using philosophical and material references from both East and West.
The foundations of the imagery are inspired by traditional and contemporary Japanese art forms which capture the spirit of their time and juxtaposed against elements of exaggeration, fantasy, parody and satire.

« My own photography or ‘found’ material provide me with the origins from which my artwork is created. I am always striving to find ways of adding another visual ‘layer’ to the inherently two-dimensional nature of my source. »
