A solo exhibition which concluded my In-Situ residency at Westwerk where I developed several visual aspects of my studio practice, developed new techniques, and introduced 2D and 3D forms into my practice.
My experimentation was influenced by the visual surroundings of the residency house, and informed by several of my existing conceptual interests. The exhibition included new artworks which were realized during the residency alongside previous artworks from 2022 and 2021.
