Artist’s Statement |
|
|
|
My current work is centred around ideas which
have been both gathered, and imagined, from
landscape. I choose to explain the landscape in
a simplified language. Some images use the
horizon line from which a grided pattern sets
the scene to hang flat forms and symbols in both
real and imagined space. This inventive approach
often results in a kind of flattening effect of
the spatial plane. |
|
|
|
The same forms and shapes reappear and visit
other works which are edited further, devoid of
horizon line and simply float on a flat field of
colour. All shifts and changes which reveal
themselves through different treatments in
individual works have been ultimately decided by
principles of composition, design, colour and
rhythm. |
|
|
|
The landscape reduced to this simplified
language of symbols and forms provides a
narrative by which I invent my compositions and
express the inspiration I always find in
landscape. |
