About The Artwork
Paris: Questioning our concepts of ambiguity, time, identity, purpose and consequence, this work in three ‘Acts’, journeys through a range of media in which the artist explores the shadow of the image, the phantom like resonance which leads to thought and memory. Leaving the viewer with a lingering recognition of something known yet unknown, within, a sense of beauty and darkness, fear and possibly love. Act I : Three monochrome photographs in soft and crystal clear focus. We are left unsure of what the images are. There is a slight figuration evident, which could lead to a clue as to the narrative : Helen, Menelaus and Paris. The quality of each image takes us into places of stillness and concentration, dominance and submission.
