Artist Statement

This work is presented from the eye of one who perceives the land and environment as a priority far above the desire for capital gain and explores the relationship between the environmental landscape and the Anthropocene/Capitalocene. It seeks to expose the fragmentation of land, showing idealised landscapes in incomplete compositions to highlight the distance we must go to prevent this ecological collapse inflicted upon us by capitalism. It reflects on the isolation of the land being left behind and taken advantage of, as well as showing the beauty of the land as a reflection of its importance and vitality to all life on earth.
