Impressions from the streets of Delhi. Bright orange beards from henna dye pop out of the swirling chaos, dust, concrete, vegetation, graffiti and warmly bathing light. The work was started with automatic drawing (a series of marks and scribbles made with my eyes closed, allowing forms and rhythms of marks comes up from my unconscious) from which different forms and images began to suggest themselves to me and the drawing took on its own life, mixing with impressions of real and imagined people and places and events from my time in India. 'From Delhi' was created simultaneously and works well as a pair with 'From Varanasi'. Mixed media- ink, graphite, charcoal, acrylic and watercolour.

Saskia is a London based artist who has exhibited in the UK and New York, had work selected for the Royal Society of Portrait Painters, and been commissioned both publicly and privately. She has been awarded prizes for drawing, sculpture and mixed media as well as the Rome Art Program and Edwin Russel Sculpture scholarships. My work is driven by the desire to explore and define my own existence and through it I seek dialogue with age old concerns of the human psyche. How do we formulate an image of self and what is our relationship to that self and to the world around us? Each time I confront a work in the studio, I am confronting myself and sucked into the dark and subterranean worlds of the psyche. I aim to create psychological spaces of tension and isolation, where figures simultaneously dissolve, decay, grow and find form. Working across two and three dimensions, my use of materials reflects the violence and fragility of the human condition, as I build up and scrape back, destroy and reconstruct, in a restless search for image, search for self and identity, search for meaning- search for elusive solid ground. The dance of Eros and Thanatos.
