‘Isolated and alone for a long time, she feels her life full of possibilities again. The pandemic reality is cast aside as she drops her mask in a gestural symbol that nothing can restrict her anymore. In that time she has honed her craft, turning it into a positive isolation. Once again she feels free.’ With this particular piece, set against the Covid 19 pandemic I wanted to depict a conflicting portrait of a positive situation coming out of it, and to portray the sense of freedom, as well as joy and optimism in the knowledge of finally leaving a life of restrictions and getting back to normality. Painted in cool blues to portray the transitional period of the isolation giving way to an airy and freeing sense of optimism in expressive brush strokes, the dancer casts aside her covid mask, and embraces this renewed sense of freedom and purpose. There is a celebratory nature to it, for the dancer has had time to reflect and hone her craft.

United Kingdom
Phil Davis studied Fine Art and Sculpture at Loughborough University, completing his degree in 2004. An accomplished draughtsman, Phil initially presented scenic depictions and travel experiences in pencil and oil pastel, using intense, bold colours as a way of reflecting a childlike wonder in the new, and in a sense the extreme, sometimes uncomfortable emotional commitment involved in relating to the culturally unfamiliar. Changing to working largely with oils resulted in work of much greater vibrancy, and allowed the extreme emotional sensations in which he was interested to be committed more successfully to canvas. His work now strives to acknowledge both the positive and negative energies, the good and the bad consequences, of these emotions, and how they inform our view of the world around us. More and more he attempts to inject the same feeling into his portrait/figurative work by representing the figurative form as an emotionally charged contradiction, as a twisted and gnarled yet beautiful representation of pain and raw feeling, as well as an object of pure physicality.
