The diversity of direction and style of my work is due to my working method. I am not constrained either by subject orientation or by personal plastic technique. I have no technical constraints! The computer supplies the technical solutions in all its various forms whether it be for a photograph, a drawing /diagram, a text work or a combination of all of these. All are constructed by pixels in the end.  I can simply select what mode of working seems appropriate for a particular piece of work. The work itself directs the end result. Some work projects just end up being spare and understated, others generate a solution that is energetic and complex. 

Generally my work is informed by science, philosophy and history/historiography. I use objects, events and documents as my point of departure  The totality of object/event is my subject, a world made in equal importance and significance, without hierarchy.
