From early on in my practice, the act of looking was central in the exploration of the sculptural qualities of the moving image, sound and text, resulting in audiovisual cinematic installations, single-screen videos, text-based and site-specific works. These were described as “distilled narratives of the personal and the observed, the imaginary and the remembered” Lisa LeFeuvre, Gutter Dreams, 2005. My work evolved around a practice of deconstructing and reworking material collected through observation that has drawn my attention to the documentary role of images. Working with video, photography and text, my most recent work is a contemplation on the standardisation, measurability and control of space and time, in the area of global mobility that seeks to construct through travelogues, personal geographies and ‘landscapes of memory’.
