Tell us about the work that you have submitted.
It features images from the films Blood and Black Lace, Slumber Party Massacre and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

How do you describe your work and practice?
I collage horror stills as a launching point to explorations of expressive surrealism in cinematic compositions.

What motivated you to apply to the AXA Art Prize?
The AXA Art Prize is an opportunity for my work to be shown around the country.

How do you approach a new work?
I have no set approach. In the beginning, I work very fast and loose; after that, I fluctuate between fast and slow movements or whatever I feel will best suit the composition. Everything happens in the moment and it’s all improvised and experimental.
