My work uses moving image, still imagery, photography, performance art, digital prints and analog technology to externalise the internal cyclical structures of obsessive compulsive disorder where compulsive behaviour functions simultaneously as protection, punishment, and failed attempts of control. My work exposes the harsh reality of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) as an inescapable cycle where relief exists only briefly before the cycle begins again never succeeding in resolution. My work draws on the nature of analogue malfunction such as static, signal interference, and playback loops. The nature of the analogue TVs mirror OCD's thought patterns and the constant need for correction or certainty. I use my artwork to expose the harsh cycle that people with OCD face everyday. It is both personal and also artwork to raise awareness to this mental illness.
