Long before I had words for it, I felt electronic music at a level I have never quite been able to explain. Not something I listened to, so much as an awareness that felt like it was moving through me. Below thought, almost sensory. Resonant. Words have always felt like a second language to me.

My practice begins there.

In permeability, a state which I have spent years practicing and subsequently teaching through yoga, and breathwork. A state where breath, frequency and emotion are allowed to move through the body before the mind can edit them.

Over time I came to understand that painting was not separate from this work but another form of the emotional release I feel when dancing or practicing yoga. In this series I am trying to capture that same act of staying open. Teaching the body to receive, letting sound reorganise what is felt, putting down a mark before any thought arrives, these are one practice expressed three ways.

Painting is where that openness leaves a trace.

Music is an incredibly important part of life. As humans we are bound together by rituals. They give us energy and meaning, and in these dark times, music and movement is power.

As an artist my desire is to capture that ephemeral moment in paint. What remains is transient by nature but enduring in its resonance: a record of a moment already gone, still vibrating on the surface. 🌀
