To see beyond what seems to be is an exhibition of prints on paper which reflect upon the way language shifts through space and transcends meaning. Depicted in the works are a number of three-dimensional soft sculptures, which were hand stitched by the artist and layered through digital photographic techniques. The muted tones of the coloured alphabet letters reflect upon the early childhood development of language. They hover over each other and do not appear to form recognisable words. Rather they confuse, conflate and transcend meaning; the intimate tactile nature of the hand-made objects cohabitates with the mechanically distancing effects of digital photographic methodologies.” – Ella Dreyfus
