Art is about recognition; identification through a continuous act of comparison in what we see, hear, touch and notice. My abstract paintings appear deceptively open and simplistic.
The starting point of this painting begins from a specific physical situation as an internal directive,
I divide a discarded section of plywood, there is no plan, it is as yet visually unknown to me.
This initial decision informs the next step, interested in how the constructed shape is relevant I start to explore that initial directive.
The purpose of surface, shape and colour create tensions that reveal
my initial response to a physical situation as their volume, mass and density reveal a link to identification.
