Acts of endurance, labour and absorption in process, my drawings are invested with a nostalgia for the materiality of written communication against the backdrop of our fast-paced, instantaneous digital culture.

We are becoming an increasingly paperless culture, encountering, consuming, ignoring, forgetting information at an ever increasing speed and frequency. My work seeks to provide a counterpoint to this, an absorption in surface and process, asking questions about transience and permanence.
