‘There are all sorts of things that give artists the impetus to make work,’ says Jurisich. ‘Stuff is all around me in visual and tactile forms. My career has been driven by abstract foundations, and I search for things that create opportunities to explore gravity, colour comparisons and conceptual questions. By using materials that transform and react with each other I can create surfaces that push and pull and define my ambiguous, intuitive process.’ 
‘The creation of each work is a journey within itself: materials are important. The viewer is always part of conversation being asked questions. I allow my works story to unfold as it may, through the dispersal of internal energy into physical and visual imagery.’
