Ribs, flesh and mist, 2024, Paint on archival paper, mounted on aluminium (2 panels), 43.5 cm x 30 cm
The overlapping layers of agricultural land in the hills, views from the house appear like strata. I began to collect up objects around the immediate area - bamboo from the garden waste, ivy and scrap materials in the boiler room to build layers. All of these pieces became digested into the shadow like and fragile forms of these images. But these images are also releasing internall feelings of uneasiness, at a time where the wider context in which they are being made present an air that is shrouded in immense human fragility.
The images started to show themselves like dust settling on a surface, it is there and it is not. A certain sense of flow is at work here. As i apply the pigment I try to move constantly so the paint does not oversaturate the paper but glides across the surface as if it almost missed or just passed by.
