I know I’ve arrived at my final work when the paintings starts to feel like music. In a ‘call and response’ method of painterly abstraction I explore linguistics, hybridity, and inner worlds. Applying lyrical colours and evident brush strokes, I choreograph large utterances to sit beside intimate whispers.

My outcomes never sit at one tone of voice, yet travel through my hand and visual language. My tension with linguistics as an Asian-Australian is the tool I use to grasp the intangible limitations of language, whilst prodding at the suspicions of my biography.
