WRITINGS
My writing grows from questions encountered in making and looking: how material form holds our attention, how perception changes as we linger, and why some encounters remain unresolved.
Intersentient States brings these enquiries together in a trilogy of illustrated essays. It offers my most developed account of the ideas emerging from my studio practice. The foundational note from 2025 is retained below as a record of their beginnings.

Read essay 📖
Written in 2025, this early essay records the beginnings of my enquiry into material form, attention and perception. It introduces questions and terminology that I subsequently reconsidered and developed in the trilogy.
I retain it here to show how the thinking began. Some formulations belong to that earlier stage; the book clarifies the distinction between the viewer’s sentience and the material qualities that shape their experience.
