Apart Photograph

Recently I have tried to articulate the private
history of an emotion or sensation through abstract painting, to
record the personal experiences and associations that have helped to
mould such feelings. Given that a painting is static and to be
appreciated by the viewer immediately, unlike a novel or a film, I
have sought to achieve this sense of remembered time by incorporating
the artistic process into the finished composition, thereby imparting
a narrative structure to the work. Sections of canvas are left
un-sized while other motifs are left unfinished so as to impart a
troubling dynamism to each piece.
