About The Artwork
Stitched, burned, cut & collaged, painted and layered. The many textures and processes allude to layers of history, pain, anguish - of memories stitched together randomly and oftentimes inaccurately or cut into the collective unconscious of those who have suffered. The central geometry represents the power of Today and the potential we have to adapt. Those of us with inaccurate historical memory have a chance to re educate ourselves and seize the opportunity for change that we have in our grasp. Those of us who have suffered, have a much needed opening to tell their history and own their story without being gaslighted. This is my second piece created in response to the current events that have deeply affected so many of us around the world and has led to the #blacklivesmatter movement. With the sale of this artwork, I pledge to give 10% of the profit to the charity Amnesty International or Stop Hate UK as a way to support justice and change in our society. To prove this, I will provide the purchaser with confirmation of the contribution, via email.

The order and perfection of geometry captured me from the moment my father put a compass in my hand, at the age of 4. Geometry often appears in my art and for me, it can be a symbol of order, structure and rules. To juxtapose fragments of perfectly formed geometry beside intuitive mark making, abstract swirls of colour or photo layered images and drawings fills me with a sense of satisfaction as it somehow mirrors our lives - a multiplicity of seemingly random events that may have some order beneath. Often, my artwork has a deeper symbolic narrative that allows it to almost be read and understood on a variety of levels. Certain geometric shapes and designs can be seen to have symbolic meaning in Islamic art, I sometimes use this to build in a deeper layer of symbolism into my work. Having lived the first part of my life in the diverse island of Trinidad, in the caribbean, I am drawn to vivid colours and textures, perhaps somehow harking back to the colours of carnival. Yet my personal studies into Islamic, Euclidean and non Euclidean geometry have opened up a world of psychological and spiritual symbology that has allowed me to explore bigger themes such as order and chaos; predetermination and freedom; intuition and reason.
