As an artist working with memory and loss I appropriate the impermanent and transient, and by way of collecting, archiving and indexing, re-present it in a final memorialised form.
Permanency of the final solution is important. My constant choice of the museum presentation acknowledges the special relationship between collector, curator and exhibit – a contract of permanent care.
Central to my current work is the concept of artist as assimilator, controller and curator.My practice has evolved along interdisciplinary lines and is underpinned and referenced by memory and memorial; a citation to family members lost in the holocaust.
Integral to each work is an initial word-based research period – a filofax of facts. There follows a process of curation as archivings of loss are re worked, re-ordered and arranged for view.
