The inspiration for my work comes from my love of geometry, symbols and color and the combination of these to create patterns.

Patterns can be found in every aspect of existence from the Elements, DNA, Nature, Life and the Universe. Human beings have been influenced by patterns and it is evident in many cultures, through art, architecture and mythology. I also feel that humans have a subconscious connection with these patterns and the purpose for me in creating my art is to make a conscious connection and to understand on a deeper level the world around me and my place in it.

“The harmony of the world is made manifest in Form and Number, and the heart and soul and all the poetry of Natural Philosophy are embodied in the concept of mathematical beauty.” Sir D’Arcy Wentworth Thompson (1860-1948, Scottish zoologist, classical scholar)
