Which Way Up? Making Sense of Emotion and Abstract Art

Music not only stirs up emotion but influences biological rhythms. Heart beats, breathing, gestural movements. These "bodily patterns" are the basis for human emotion.

Created in immediate response to music, this body of work explores the cross sensory experience of visual and auditory perception, extracting the emotional content of music through gestural and emotional responses to the rhythm, pitch and flow of interweaving harmonies.

This primitive and ritualistic physical exploration invites you to immerse yourself in the scale of the paintings and work your way through the intermingled emotions they arouse.
