About the artist

My work deals with the behavioural characteristics of the movement of fluid and in particular liquid crystal. I capture the full colour spectrum and the intrinsic qualities of its molecular structure, through film and photography using polarized light to reveal the molecular orientation.

These intimate microphotographs and moving paintings gaze into a phenomenon, inviting the viewer to submerge within the realms of ethereal depths. As the liquid warms and cools the textures and spectrum writhe and flow enticing a sensory perception as a time travelling tool; it takes us to another world, it tests our senses and questions our perception of the hidden depths and currents of the movement of matter.
