The skateboard, its shape and urban connotations, has morphed over time. The object itself provides a contextual anchor; viewers may see something else within the work: bullets, sarcophagi, or Greek vases. Yet all these forms carry a whisper of the figure.

Then comes a shift, to themes of security, thumbprints, and mugshots. The repetition suggests medical specimens, data collection, crowding, counting, and categorisation. There is also something inherently beautiful about the reproductive nature of printmaking.

There is an intuitive sense of moving with the aesthetics, being guided by what I see and what I know through the act of making. Through this process, strangely haunting and ambiguous forms begin to emerge.
