About The Artwork

The world around us shapes our inner world and we in turn shape the world around us based on our internal experience. This painting is a reflection of this process, a portrait of a figure, sitting in their own dreamworld. The abstract forms, symbols and imagery which make up the scene around them are a projection of their fragmented mind. This piece is from a series of artworks that explore portraiture and dream-like imagery. I am inspired by people, philosophy of mind and psychedelic experience With each piece, I want to tell a story that celebrates the mystery and strangeness of life and human experience, each with the tension between the real, the surreal and the abstract. Acrylic paint, charcoal, paint pen and oil stick on unprimed 180gsm canvas. Framing - This artwork is sold framed. The frame is a simple, slightly textured white wooden floating canvas frame. Alternative colours are available on request.

My work explores themes of connectedness, the relevance of self-identity and psychedelic or altered experience. There is a sharp contrast between our felt experience, our physical reality, and others perception of us, which is increasingly obscured by our increasing presence in digital spaces. My personal journey with meditation has helped me find moments of serenity in an increasingly chaotic world. Each painting represents a flickering between being in the present moment to being washed away by a cascade of thoughts, mental images and chatter or overwhelming emotion. My work encourages self-reflection, mindfulness and questioning the hierarchy or importance of thoughts and experiences. These lines of enquiry should inform how we handle our inner world and make sense of our experiences, as well as how we understand and see others.
