In art and creative work, the entire purpose is to express perspectives, to question perspectives, and to establish a visual dialogue. The artist's perspective is a vital portal into differing ways of thinking, seeing, and feeling. Furthermore, it has the capacity to engage in a mutually expressive relationship that connects people and places in a way that language cannot. We all have a form of perspective, starting with the roots of our people and our place in the world. In my opinion, we gain a deeper understanding of the world as we explore it away from our origins.

The photogravure etchings exhibited in ‘Perspectives’ represent an ongoing investigation into our own intimate mark-making. The works question the way communication exists through human gestures and the impressions or traces that these gestures leave behind.
