My work explores the relationship between a
perceiver and their environment. Informed by ideas of embodied experience
from the philosophical discipline of phenomenology, and an understanding
of a reciprocal relationship between a perceiver and their environment
from the discipline of cultural anthropology, my work seeks ways in which
art practice might represent the dynamic and technologically mediated
relationship that exists between a perceiving subject and their surroundings.
