About

My  work has its roots in pop art, surrealism and dada ...in particular the surrealist game

“ the exquisite corpse”…a game of chance ...the idea of random also involving elements of unpredictability, chance, unseen elements is central to the production and creation of the work… a collection and juxtaposition of words and images is collectively assembled ... telling new stories which are almost exclusively collage, both traditional cut and paste and digital often combining both ...raw material is culled from posters in the streets, magazines and newspapers ... the camera is in constant use...
