Through the use of photography and digital media processes, my art practice explores themes relating to identity, the consciousness of self, home, environment and personal relationships. These themes are explored via an observational approach (external), or, via personal experience (internal); each approach highlighting psychological processes, the vulnerability of self and the commonality of human experience and behavior. In my most recent work, I am using a combination of photography and video, site-specific installation and mixed media applications. Areas of research I am interested in and actively utilize in my work include relational and environmental psychology, cognitive aesthetics, visual communication and the philosophical argument surrounding the experience of art and the nature of the aesthetic object. I investigate collage and graphic design as processes of visual construction, and as methods by which we can formulate a visual language. Presentation modes have become a significant part in constructing the possible readings of my work, as well as considerations regarding installation-based approaches. As an artist, looking at a space - both physical and psychological- and understanding it in terms of the experience of a work of art is essential. The space that the viewer enters can and should be considered by the artist prior to a work being shown, as this space will become a platform for the experiencing of art, and will therefore impact both reader and artwork. Thinking beyond traditional forms of framing, presentation and print processes- and instead considering the role of light, alternative materials, equipment, space, installation and site specific techniques- are all approaches I investigate and seek to involve as the creative process develops and expands, from concept to actualization. This thesis will seek to show how my art incorporates cognition and communication through the manifestation of abstract and aesthetic appeals. I will explore how I do this through the specific and selective use of material and medium, and the resulting artistic process of image making.
