A Walk in the Park Installation

I am a mixed-media visual artist based in the UK. I am concerned with highlighting the plight of objects and materials which may be overlooked or discarded. In my paintings I builds new narratives from various existing sources, my own drawings and photographs, found imagery, memory of places and conversations. I start with the surface which, being found has unique lines and blemishes. For me these pre-existing marks conjure up different memories and experiences. Quite often the imagery is from faraway but significant places juxtaposed with patterns and images from the everyday, the idea that nothing is too far away and that this incongruity is part of our existence.
