Darren's art practice involves various materials and processes, contributing to the richness of his work. He reflects on past impressions to capture moments with energy and emotion. His studio is a sacred space for dialogue with the universe, allowing artwork to develop organically. Themes of botanical beauty and nature's complexity are central, using plants as metaphors for the universe. Mathematical concepts like the Fibonacci series inform his compositions, exploring different perspectives.
