Rooted in my experience as the child of a profoundly deaf father and a deaf-blind mother, my self-imposed blind process reflects the sensory-adapted ways I learned to navigate the world.

Through this personal framework, my practice explores structural form, material stress, and sensory limitation. I deliberately restrict visual feedback by painting, cutting, drilling, heating, and chemically transforming linen, synthetic membrane, and copper while the material is held in severely curved or coiled states. In doing so, I rely on tactile intuition, physical resistance, and unpredictable material behaviour to shape the work.

Since 2004, I have developed this distinct methodology as Membrane Art—a lifelong exploration of tension and tranquillity, chaos and resolve. From curvature to flat: one expression becomes many—the memory of the curve made tangible.
