There are well over 100 works in the series LOCI, of which this website displays a limited selection. LOCI is an ongoing project since 2009 which maps the interior of a labyrinthine series of interlocking rooms within an architectural structure. No exteriors are ever seen, rooms merely contain objects, the 'substance' of which is explored in the series of works entitled 'Portraits'. The works are exploded, sculpted and charted solely through the process of mark making.

LOCI is mapped through pencil in 'Series 1' and paint in 'Series 2'. Some spaces feel awkward in application or subject matter, each medium bringing its own quality, concerns and outcomes along the way. Mapping the chambers may be an endless and futile path, but one which is compelled to travel.
