Artist Statement
My creative research explores a divide between western people and wildlife resulting from simulacrum; through representation the wild animal has become a constructed being. I am subsequently interested in the absence of wildlife in its original form for this culture, and the psychological consequences for the human victim. My work considers the human as an isolated species of animal in search of a connection to, or role within, nature. The artwork explores gender differences in relationships to wildlife; it converses with the complex activity of nurturing and its destructive potential to inflict harm on other species. I employ performance, installation, drawing, and a range of other media to explore themes of absence, loss, isolation, and vulnerability in western society's post-colonial relationship to wildlife.
