When I walk through the pathways within a built environment such as London’s central business district, I become increasingly aware of my own sense of human scale and my own physical and psychological sensations. In the studio context, I have been interested in the similarities between the controlled white cube of the museum and the context of my own art work; I began to play with architectural forms, edifices and repetitive motifs on a new scale, that was directly influenced by the spaces of the city that I have experienced.

My earlier work related to an interest in principles associated with Land Art, such as the attempt to relate the material, form and colour of a work to the natural, or man made environment in which it is located. In contrast, the aim of the new installation- which I see as an ‘allegory of the city’- is to guide the viewer through the space which the work inhabits, using simple materials and light to suggest the confrontational experience of a controlled, built environment. The intention is to leave the viewer to decide if this experience is a positive or negative one.
