Based in Liverpool, UK, I am a professional musician and visual artist working across sound and form.

​

My work sits within a lineage of reductive and systems-based abstraction, drawing on the structural clarity of Aurelie Nemours, the disciplined repetition of Julije Knifer and the conceptual rigour of François Morellet and Sol LeWitt. These influences are grounded in a parallel life as a performing musician, where timing, phrasing and silence are experienced physically rather than theoretically.

​

The paintings are deliberately restrained but they hold a quiet intensity. What appears minimal at first begins to shift with time: spacing creates tension, repetition builds rhythm and intervals start to feel measured rather than seen. The work does not reveal itself all at once - it unfolds gradually, inviting a slower, more sustained engagement.​​

STEMS is a system for translating music into visual form.

 

Each work is a direct transcription of a musical passage, where pitch is mapped vertically and duration is expressed through width and structure of each form. Solid stems represent shorter notes; hollow stems indicate sustained notes. Wider spacings between forms function as silence.

​

The paintings are not interpretations or abstractions of music - they are precise visual scores. Every element corrresponds to a specific musical event.

​

Working across jazz, classical and contemporary music, the system allows compositions to be re-experienced as spatial rhythm: time becomes structure and sound becomes form.
