PAINTING “CROMLEACH”
A RETROSPECTIVE EXHIBITION OF DRAWINGS AND PAINTING FROM THE SERIES “A SENSE OF PLACE”.
“PASSAGES OF TIME”
STATEMENT:
INVESTIGATING WITHIN MY ART PRACTICE AND THROUGH THE MEDIUM OF PAINT ALLOW FOR AN EXPLORATION AND ENGAGEMENT WITHIN THE THEME OF TIME & PLACE.
USING PHOTOGRAPY AS A STARTING POINT TO TRANSFER AND CAPTURE THE ESSENCE,I FOLLOW ON THROUGH INTO DRAWING ON PAPER.
THIS PROCESS LEADS ME FORWARD WHILE EXPLORING MY THEME,THROUGH THE MEDIUM OF PAINT.
AS I LAY LAYERS OF PAINT UPON PAINT THE NARRATIVE BEGINS TO UNFOLD.
ITS IN THESE PIVOTAL MULTI LAYERS OF PAINT THAT I ENDEAVOUR TO CAPTURE THE ESSENCE OF PLACE.
ITS THROUGH THE MANIPULATION OF PLACE, THE SEEN AND UNSEEN, THAT DRIVES ME FORWARD, SEEKING TO CAPTURE THE ESSENCE OF THE VISUAL WHILE TRIGGERING THE VIEWER’S EMOTIONS AS THEY ARE ENGLIGHTENED.
GENERATING A MEMORY OF BEING PRESENT.
