My lens-based practice is concerned with the influence of technology on our perceptions of the natural world and what it means to live in a digital age surrounded by screens. Through a process-based exploration of materiality and physical interactions between various types of digital devices and inspired by observation and the unintentional, I seek to engage with the unconscious and conscious need to find meaning in randomness. My work creates a hypnotic and highly somatic experience of seeing by playing with pixels, focus, and scale, leading to a variety of output including photography and digital print, video and GIFs, and sculpture and installation.
