The cut paper pieces completed in 2007 and 2008, have evolved from three years of exploring ideas through walnut ink drawings and paintings on paper. This work is becoming less traditional both in subject matter and form as I gradually lose the rigidity of the rectangle, and penetrate the interior with a knife.

As in other work from recent years, the subject matter which shapes my imagery emerges from current social and environmental issues. In this series I have touched upon such wide ranging themes as: anorexia, teen subculture, urban blight, consumerism, climate change, extinction of species, energy consumption, homelessness and the need for peace on earth.
