VIEW IN MY ROOM
Current affairs. I have always been interested in questioning and commenting to engage in a form of critical thinking and close examination of the current socio affairs of the places I live in. It is important, I feel, for all of us to be attuned to our socio cultural, economic and political environment. I often use humour and pictorial composition to present puzzles and visual metaphors. The humour acts as visual counterpoint to subjects that are sometimes difficult, complicated nuanced and multi-layered. By focussing on these, my works offer the viewer a possibility of discourse into what goes on around us.

Born to English parents. Lived in Nigeria, Kenya and Papua New Guinea for first 12 years. Statement: The continual questioning that forms the basis of Arp Raph’s work, alongside his exploration of the underlying codes within the political and cultural arena, is the result of his participation in the experiences around him; he conjures up images that serve to engage his viewers in a form of critical thinking about - and close examination of - the events he references and the anecdotes that arise from these. The socio-cultural aspect plays a particularly significant role. 'I find that searching for answers dictates which materials are used and how'. His methods characteristically involve both 2 and 3 dimensional puzzles, visual metaphors and a focus on the conspicuous imperfections in the subjects he chooses. The assemblage of his installations makes for an interactive experience: ’It’s necessary to capture the viewers’ attention and one way to do that is to get them involved.’ By facilitating this involvement, his works offer the viewer the possibility of engaging in a discourse on what goes on around them.
