Artist's Statement:
In painting I seek to reveal the extraordinary within the ordinary and to challenge established visual memories, as in those moments when light splinters and shatters across a space, transforming the familiar and the mundane. Similarly when shadows shift and grow to become more animated and substantial than their origins they imprint the surroundings like memories that are never accurate but hold some shape of the experience. Reflective surfaces also distort space in ways that mirror our modern concept of time, distorting the daily linear narrative into a flexible customised frame. We record and play back so much of our lives that sometimes it appears were are not living in real time but some form of simulation. In the French Horn series the bell of the horn appears to pull the space it reflects into the instrument in proportion to the music that can emanate from it; space and sound run counter current. |
