I have been making collages for the last 3 years and I really enjoy the process as they come to me quite effortlessly; what I find is that a universal visual language seems to continuously crop up from the unfathomable depths of my psyche. This could be likened to Jung's observation of the Collective Unconscious, where certain archetypes seem to reoccur in the form of dreamlike imagery that is derivative of ancient myths, folklore, religion etc. 

These collages provide me with material that has tapped into a surreal, mystical, dreamy and childlike aspect of my psyche. It feels like they could hold some kind of hidden message or guidance from my subconscious just as we have that opportunity with our dreams. We are all co-creators of the Universe and now, more than ever, we need to channel and download this continual stream of information that seems to be flowing forth offering us an opportunity to expand and heal from within.
