The work revolves around a central theme of space, physically and psychologically, which is explored and expressed through the material of light. Alongside this her drawings are related to physical space and connectedness, light being the causal subject.
Maverick artist/photographer, self-taught, working with an unusual blend of imagery and ideas often containing surreal elements. Although lens based, the work is rarely recognized as photography due to unique methods of blending subject matters for final production on large format printed canvases.Influences include DCMarvel Comics, Railway Posters and photomontage.
An artist working mostly in abstract, inspiration being land and seascapes enabling the use of colour and mark-making which is fully embraced. Life drawing and portraiture are additional disciplines which in themselves are landscape, and thus complement her land and sea inspired works.

My photographic works distort the landscape in such a way that the periphery is unclear but in other areas, channels of partial clarity appear. I use hand made lenses, in the form of glass landscapes in conjunction with my camera to create this effect. In this way, the whole cannot be seen, all the story cannot be told and it is guesswork what truths may exist be beyond the distortion of the glass landscape.

A multimedia artist whose practice includes photography, video, performance and collaboration. In photography, through different strategies, her work disrupts the authority of the photograph.
D-bar’s work plays on the space between the present, solidity of now and the ephemeral memory of yesterday. In search of the untouchable and elusive, to understand something of that is incomprehensible. This work is related to traditional representation of the human form, with historical echoes of death masks.
The artist has been influenced by silk screen techniques and is currently interested in transparency, layering and mark-making avoiding brushwork for a large part. She works from her own photographs through a process which is experimental rather than fulfilling a fully worked out prior intention.
The relief sculpture combines images of the Peppered Moth with cast iron. The Peppered Moth species, responding to early 19th century industrial pollution, changed from brown and white colouring to black. In responding to the impact of man on nature, cast iron is chosen as a reference to the industrial revolution. It changes from black to brown when it rusts.
