ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Explores the questions of the rights of a woman to their own body. I believe women should have the right to chose what happens to their own body in terms of bearing children. It should not be the right for anyone to control whether they have children or not. There should be no stigma or societal influences on a woman's choice. There are already many abandoned, unwanted children in this world who need care and attention. A child should grow up knowing they were a wanted child...

UK artist. Exhibited in UK, Switzerland, USA, China, France, Italy, Sweden, France, Bratislava and India. My work explores the complex relationships, transient nature and our interactions within the shared spaces around us. Examining and incorporating current human conditions affecting us in todays society, creates a narrative within the work and by expressing a personal response to co-occupying the space communicates a common sense of displacement, a question of belonging, purpose and relevance within our continually changing urban environments. Initial drawing, photographic and observational studies, enable me to abstract the essence of form, space and colour for my paintings and the main medium, oil paint, communicates more desirably the sense of continual movement and fluidity of the form within my work. A limited colour pallet and painterly mark-making helps to evoke a stronger suggestion of mood and place, encouraging the viewer to personally explore and interpret the painting further.
