Blessing foreseen Painting

My practice responds to memories documented through visual recordings, especially photography and drawing. I explore these memories through considering the dimensions of emotion using colour and geometric shapes. The work is both a representation of the state of mind, mood and attitude that I am painting with, alongside a reflection of that single moment I recorded the event. I aim to allow the paintings to become a tool for the viewer to have a momentary experience based on their interpretation of the shapes and colours.   I noticed that my paintings, whether intentionally or not, are influenced by my emotions and the atmosphere I am surrounded by, either through colour or composition. It is natural for humans to have an emotional response to colour to connect it with an emotion. The composition and colour within my work begins to act as a representation of my state of mind, and latches onto subconscious thought in ways I sometimes only realise on completion, or reflection.   To me my work is a record of how I feel in that moment. I need the work respond to emotion but to give the viewer the freedom to explore their own thoughts. Replicating my emotion is not what I want, I want them to see something for themselves to reflect their own emotions. Like a portrait often takes you back to yourself. My aim is to utilise this notion through abstract forms to further the fact of the unconscious being something which is always untold.
