Light Cycles (2023)
“expressions of my journey into minimalism; sculpting with air, time & light”
Light Cycles are contemporary light sculptures; they are the result of a quest to create touching and rhythmic journeys of light while reducing physical complexity to a minimum.
Each piece is a unique constellation of translucent materials and light, created with repurposed materials that are available in that particular moment in time.

Light Fields (2021)
Light Fields are a form of visual poetry; a dance of colour and light.
Light Fields are light emitting wall pieces composed of multiple layers of glass, high resolution colour prints and light. Each composition moves along with its viewers’ eyes; creating a visual illusion of gradually changing landscapes.
Light Fields was born in 2017 as an architectural scale art installation, and has since been meticulously refined to suit many scales and sizes from intimate artworks to large scale architectural installations.
