ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The recurring shapes in my 'Monument' series are inherited from my previous project in which I restored an artist's leftovers and offcuts back into rectangular panels. Through repetition, these random, coincidental shapes start to become familiar, recognisable. I'm interested in their value; whether nature is alive in these formations. If so, could they become symbols; something we respect or worship like the crucifix? Inspired by the decaying graves in Brompton Cemetery and the stoney appearance of my handmade paper, pulped from leftovers and glued to canvas, I've created a series of monuments commemorating nothing in particular. Each picture stands vacant, awaiting a viewer who may cast their own loving memories or, perhaps, feelings of emptiness upon it. This piece is NOT framed. It is an A5 collage mounted on A3 white cartridge paper. Ideally it should be framed to keep this white, negative space around it - see 'Tribute' and 'Testament' which I posted recently.

SHIPPING AND RETURNS
Delivery Time:

Typically 5-7 business days for domestic shipments, 10-14 business days for international shipments.

I am a mixed-media artist based in London. My collages explore the boundaries between the man-made and nature, reanimating found materials, shapes and colours, often the by-products of design. New arrangements are constructed by assimilating inherited material and processing with a mechanical mindset. I believe these serendipitous compositions could hold some inherent value which might offer us a fleeting glimpse of our connection with the world.
