At the end of 2018 I looked at my recent work and felt more than a little depressed. I felt like I had become complacent and was using the same techniques over and over again. So over the Christmas break I took a step back and decided to do a complete reset. I dove into this thing called Houdini and as luck would have it was then commissioned in the January to create a piece of work called The Art of Cybersecurity for Trend Micro. I decided to use my new found enthusiasm and approach on this project, to see where it could go.

The reception to the work was wonderful including being long listed for the Lumen Prize and being featured in Art Futura.

I’m now grateful for that period at the end of 2018 when I thought all my work was rubbish, as it made me reevaluate, take stock and discover new ways of creating. Comfort is the C word.
