Uncle Geoffrey's Rooms Painting

Uncle Geoffrey’s Rooms FloorPlan Series #3 In the 'Floor Plan' series, I was initially inspired by the work of Hans Hoffman and Sean Scully, I felt these abstract expressionists, and many others, have a way of painting emotion and placing it into a logical format. Kandinsky's understanding of colour and it's relationship to our physical and spiritual body is the second theme running throughout the series. Thirdly the square format in these artworks is relative to the idea of structure, how we live in 'structures' during our life and the effects and memories this creates. The artwork in this series does not follow a chronological order, but an expression of emotional impact. Though cliched ‘art therapy’ is not the intention, the possibility of an ‘unintended consequence’, of drawing from memory and painting an ‘isness’ within that time frame. An overriding sense of suppression, secrets, festering masculinity, a dotting grandmother who could barely control her four grown sons, who were damaged by wars, was masked in a milieu of alcohol and valium. Though I felt under the protectiveness of my Nan, the secrets were known to me years later. Childhood hurts and traumas could be shed and light brought into the devastation of what war can do to a person.
