My practice centres on the intersections between pattern and repetition, textile processes and mathematics. Simple geometric forms that often feature in my works, such as grids and circles, are closely associated to these systems of order. My work primarily focuses on the materials I use and the time-intensive processes of unpicking and reconstructing that I employ. Abstraction is fundamental to my practice as it serves to reinforce these two elements. The representation in these works is the materiality and physical construction of my chosen ground, painters’ canvas: a pliable grid of woven threads. The qualities and versatility of this material challenges the idea that canvas acts simply as a ground or support for the painting.
