My background in science leads to a particular way of looking at the structure of things. This links with the way that people in early modern times tried to classify everything. There was a desire then to order and control the world and nature and the tools for doing it were rational thought and analysis. Even dreams and the subconscious, things that seemed beyond reason could be analysed (Freud).

So I came out of a humanist, scientific tradition but there was something wrong with it all, for me. And I found that art allowed me to explore the world in a way that seemed more natural.
