Artist Statement
“I am honoured to be a part of this lab and to meet peers working in exciting new spheres of possibility. This opportunity allows me to try something new, something that I have recently dreamed up and create an atmosphere of experimentation in the room. I like presenting a problem that we all have to solve, together, as a collaborative unit. No one has the answer to start with, least of all me, but we all find the answer during our time together and I need us to be ambitious.”
