EMBODIED ART, SOCIAL ARCHITECTURE

Matters of Perception and Experience

“I aim for my practice and my offerings (I often refer to my art, performance and other public sharings as offerings made in service to something or someone) to enable the divinity that is within each of us to be revealed—to see healing not as something that is done to us or for us, but as something we can achieve our- selves. We can all be our own healers. Investigations into sacred architecture within the space of the gallery support the viewer to cultivate a relationship to devotion, reverence and belonging, inside and outside of tradition and on their own terms. Each of us has a right to do the spiritual work as it becomes available to us. As an artist and practitioner, I seek to contribute to the demysti- fication of mysticism and esoteric principles. The relationship we have to our spirituality is deeply connected to our mental health.

I make a practice of living through sound in order to combat despair. My ancestors used art to heal, and recognised that through sound we can create order from chaos. This is my inheritance"
