Clive Rothwell

My images involve the materialising of colour and forms on surfaces that are an extension of my internal world, though perhaps more organised, as time and reflection allows me to explore the relationship between the forms, the layers and the colour in the composition.

It is intuitive in the way that intuition informs me when the work is finished. The process involves a dialogue, and in that way it becomes something beyond myself and its forms become shaped by the impression the work and I have on one another. The result is a union, a conception. It has made the transition from my internal world to the external world, like a birth. It exists.
