About the Artwork

This painting is rooted in dreams to make an image of a fantastical, utopian landscape. Dream journaling over several months and walking formed key parts of the process. Layering paint and pigment, mark-making, erasure and manipulating line and scale of representational forms were part of this work’s process. To me, this is an image of transience, rest, wit and imagination. Notes from films - Man Ray’s Starfish and Sissako’s Waiting for Happiness, walks through old eastern cities and observation of everyday characters from life have formed some of the image. The stories of people, plants, land and politics are entwined.
