'EVERY BRIGHT LIGHT CASTS A DARK SHADOW. I TAKE A LONG PAINFUL LOOK AT MY DARKER TRAITS, AS A REFLECTION OF OUR SHARED HUMAN FRAILTY - AND THE DEVINE POWER TO OVERCOME IT.’
'I am heavily influenced by Carl Jung and te idea of the collective unconciousness.
By using photography as a medium to paint with archetypes: universal truths about the human condition, I try and explore my unconscious.
These truths, in turn, helps me to explain why I act the way I act.
And perhaps you too.'
