About The Artwork

One of an ongoing series of arrangements of pairs of contrasting forms. Through the intuitive arrangement of objects, I often “found” the composition when it was distilled down to two elements that were distinct in nature yet complimentary (in reality always three elements, the “background space” being the third) By scaling up the forms larger than life size, I become more aware of their elemental natures and form become space, which I can enter and explore. Their interactivity creates a dialogue, movement and therefore, process. This animation suggested a metaphor that is universal on every scale. A dance.

I work in the still life painting tradition from brief, often precarious, arrangements of small, neutral or insignificant subject matter. I use observation, intuition, relationship, scale and metaphor to create a sense of clarity and space and give form to my sensibility. I regard form as concentrated space, process and phenomena and strive to create visual meditations that are layered, poetic and stop time. I draw on my interests outside art for inspiration - mainly music, yoga, meditation and Eastern thought, mainly Tao and Zen. I am particularly drawn to the increasing connections between Buddhist related thought and aspects of contemporary science, particularly physics and neuropsychology. I have also been very influenced by Iain McGilchrist's groundbreaking book "The Master and his Emissary", a Rosetta stone that connects and explains the two brain hemispheres, "the two cultures" and the philosophies of East and West. It reveals much of arts response to 20th/21st century Western society to be in fact, like its subject, Cartesian and dualistic. Please look at my blog for more written thoughts and observations.
