About The Artwork

My work explores the similarity between the ancient megaliths and the abandoned industrial buildings our culture leaves behind. I believe that ordinary or everyday landscapes are important historical artefacts which can be read like documents so that cultural meaning and environmental experience can be deciphered and better understood. My mining background and heritage determine my interest in the centuries old struggle between the forces of industry and nature. I was born in a small mining town which now is filled with structural foundations of mine ‘heads’ which had been reduced to anonymous minimal concrete monuments. There is something mystical about the modern ‘menhirs’, they are at once placid and confronting. They carry the power and mystical sense of the past but also address the concerns of current culture.

I live and work in Sydney. While my works are inspired by a strongly narrative element grounded in the context of my own personal experience and history, much of my painting is devoid of figuration and extraneous detail. Large areas are left undefined, empty of fuss and unnecessary congestion. I leave these dark holes for the viewer to peer into and struggle through. For me, drawing and painting are both journeys through layers. My paintings are intensively worked, scrapped back repeatedly and re-configured, looking for something that is unified, full and ordered. In my works the sheer physicality of paint, its density and the archaeology of the layers, its application and movement across the surface is inseparable from the content. I believe it’s not enough to simply describe what we see, one has to recreate the landscape in painterly form by simplifying and accentuating so that we can understand the truth and tensions that exist therein.
