My practice involves the creative opportunities offered by words and images - their relationships, thoughts, meanings, concepts, and coding.

​

Life is ever-changing but the past is always here. The repository of human understanding lies within and around us all now built upon prior creative, intellectual, artistic and written endeavours. I believe there are certain ‘givens’ within human experience across time and cultures and one constant is how words, and images, may heal or harm.

​

As a doctor and psychotherapist, my background is healing through words and images. Therapeutic words have power through their use over time by countless therapists and based upon psychological theory and clinically targeted exegesis and hermeneutics.

​

The theoretical and practical knowledge gleaned from my years in clinical practice act as the prism through which I conceptually explore the now. For many years I have been privileged and fortunate to share moments of great pain and joy. I understand how important, and generally underestimated, play is in helping us in our life-journey.

​

I hope my art will offer and informed, playful and good-humoured resource to our wellbeing.
