Let fantasy become your reality. Reinvention is possible in every moment of every day, limits disappearing into the endless horizon, “no ceiling to your growth”, she said. Every morning drips with a hope, like rain, a grey prelude to the light. My works, my visual amulets, filled with hope and energy forall that is to come. Visualisation, an instinct, something I’ve used to contemplate and flourish through difficult times, long before any formal or more two-dimensional learning. Manifestations, tokens of the future and the past, taking on such simplistic forms as that of a scrap of paper tacked to a wall, remainas symbols, omens, carrying the same weight as gold.

So therefore there is no physical original it has been created digitally but uses various elements of my original material
