"Systems of Memory"
Hand Woven, Screen Print
2016

My work relies on structures that exist within both material processes and memory. Through creating woven substrates that are then screen printed and altered a trace or imprint of a structure can be revealed. I relate these ideas of systems, structures, trace and imprint found in this process to ideas of how memory functions within us. Imagery used in my other work is that of figures within a space sourced from photographs that are then blurred, cropped and partially erased to obfuscate their emotive ability. To leave the left over space when the figure is removed. Through collaging, repetition and projecting a moving image the ever-changing quality of memories is explored.
