Along the border between the 8th and 17th district, the Monceau Park belongs to Paris prettiest gardens, as evidenced by its fence with golden arrowheads, or its four wrought-iron gateways. It is an authentic green area, one of Paris main flower gardens, where you will find astonishing vegetation, like an oriental plane tree, with a 7 meters circumference, or a sycamore maple tree which is the highest and the oldest of the district (30 meters, 1853). The park exudes a quite peaceful atmosphere, surrounded by bourgeois apartments and mansions, typical of the Parisian architecture. Some of the lawns can be freely accessed, and you will always find a place on one of the various benches of the garden! Although the Monceau Park is not a very vast one, it offers a nice and pleasant walk: cross the Italian style bridge in order to see the sceneries (small temples and fake ruins) built at the end of the 19th century for entertainment purpose, as well as the famous Naumachie. This pond, surrounded by four Corinthian columns, is an imitation of the arena where naval battles were performed during Roman times. It is also the garden’s symbol.

I have continued to explore the dynamics, complimentary and competing, of the inter-relationship of nature and the built environment. I have now turned to contemporary London. I require the viewer to stop and look at what appear to be familiar landmarks, but, once studied, then to see the creative eye and hand of the artist re-formulating and re-interpreting both the architecture and the environment. The choice of these London sites is both personal and visceral. I note initial feelings and thoughts on location and then research to understand the vision of the original architects or sculptors, aiming to create a resonance of mind and spirit. The final image is a palimpsest with layers worked and re-worked in a montage of growing locational information. Like much great art of the past, My works reward the viewer's close scrutiny and even Londoners accustomed to these sites should see them anew: Tower Bridge; Westminster Abbey; Horseguards; and others all take on new and sometimes startling accretions which draw attention not just to the original structures and forms but also ask us to reconsider them thoroughly. As these prints are the creative re-interpretations of some of the finest buildings and sculptures in the Cities of London and Westminster, My aim to challenge Londoners and visitors to re-assess the familiar and to engage with my vision of our capital.
