About The Artwork

What does it look like when that which protects us breaks down? This is one of a series of works using decomposed pedestrian protection tape. I found the barricading material woven into the grass at one of my kids' rugby fields. I used plaster to attach it to the canvas and then enamel and oil paint to complete the work. I love the way the originally uniform pattern of the material has been warped, revealing the flaws in its intention - to provide protection. There's honesty in its fallibility. The surface of the work is textured and irregular, extending a maximum of 2cm in relief in places.

I'm a Melbourne based abstract artist. I studied at the University of Cape Town (Fine Art, History of Art) and later at the Arts Students League in NYC with the political activist / artist, Rudolf Baranik. Since setting in Australia in 1997, I've exhibited in Melbourne, Sydney and South Australia. My work is housed in private collections in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, London, New York, New Jersey, Houston and Minneapolis. I use materials as disparate as oil, plaster, collage, pastel, sand and pencil. Alternating techniques (collage, decollage, electric sanding, painting) result in a complex exchange of the revealed and the hidden. Material and experience are equally woven and unravelled to build a reframed reality.
