HULK ‘By the light of the torches, we saw the black Hulk lying out a little way from the mud of the shore, like a wicked Noah’s ark. Cribbed and barred and moored by massive rusty chains, the prison-ship seemed in my young eyes to be ironed like the prisoners.’ Great Expectations by Charles Dickens Hulks were a temporary measure in the late Eighteenth Century. They were old merchant or war ships used as substitute prisons to cope with the over spill from the over crowded gaols. This emergency measure continued for 80 years, through the first half of the Nineteenth Century. Hulks soon became the waiting rooms for convicts en route to New South Wales and Van Diemen’s Land.

France
I live and work between Bordeaux, France and the UK. The paintings tend to appropriate historical subjects from the 19th Century. Yet, by stripping away the historical context, the paintings often have no sense of definite place or time. The subjects are isolated in sort of nowhere spaces, where any clear narrative is precluded. I am represented by Invisible Print Studio, Delta House Studios, Wimbledon.
