Out of Space, Out of Time

This ongoing series addresses two key themes: firstly, constructing a fictional narrative, distorting how we interpret and understand a paintings visual anchors to a place in time. Secondly, exploring the relationship between painting and collage. These works are recognisable to the viewer as we identify the figures, landscapes and the events unfolding, yet they cannot be understood. When viewing a collage it is plain to see that the composition is constructed and therefore impossible. When we see a photograph or a painting however, and view the composition presented uninterrupted as one, we accept it and try to understand it. These works challenge the viewer to define them and to find meaning in their composition.
