About the Artwork

Re-imagining landscape painting in a contemporary context has been a concern of mine. A mapping of place which encompasses geological time, social histories, personal experiences and memory is a primary motivation. The early Flemish Weltlandschaft has also been a continuing fascination in which viewpoint is often bird-like providing the visual potential for a great stretching of space and time to unfold. The scars of the post-industrial landscape, histories of natural extraction are ever present. Today, these transformed sites support an abundance of nature. These landscapes suggest the instability of experienced events, an instability which seems to point to the future.
