About The Artwork
Pandemonium, the Chopping and Boiling Triptych 120cm x 360 cm. Oil paint on canvas 2010 Herman Melville’s Moby Dick reveals the whaling ships of the 19th century to have been a society apart, entirely self contained. The flesh-like substance in the painting Pandemonium, the Chopping and Boiling, is suggestive of meat, the waste product of whaling. The painting clearly references the whale ship and the processes of whaling and yet it is more, it is a vision of hell, a Dantean structure. At the end of the long, meticulous process of chopping, it is simply boiled and ends up as smoke and flames, as the whole process starts over again.

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.
