I am interested in the aesthetic of the everyday, and in my practice I have been putting the surfaces we see around us under a microscope. Through drawing and print I have created books and paper installations centered on detailed viewpoints of found textures, marks and patterns. The imagery I am using is sourced from a series of photographs from which I have chosen sections to zoom into and blow up to a much larger scale, thus altering their appearance. Through exploring the depth of materials in print, I am looking at the way in which separating these patterns from their original contexts and transforming and repeating them can transform them into ambiguous, illusionary surfaces capable of encompassing the viewer.
