About the Artwork

A Familiar Stop explores the quiet permanence of everyday places. It depicts the view from a bus stop in Cowgate, Newcastle, a familiar part of my daily life since I moved there at age ten. For fifteen years, this view has marked countless journeys. While much has changed, the telephone box and post box remain constant, showing how ordinary places become personal landmarks through time and repetition.
