COMBINED PROCESS ON PAPER
‘A painting is an accumulation of time apprehended instantaneously’ Peter Lanyon
In the continuous framework of experience over time, the past and present find their equivalents within a working process, where a kind of alchemy takes place.
These images sample some of the many connected and disconnected experiences one has in the environment, consciously and otherwise. They provide a kind of shorthand that suggests an intuitive editing process is already in place as we accumulate and turn over experience. They also show in a peculiarly visual way how much we bring of ourselves; how and what we are in those moments of coding and making imagery.
These episodes represent my current interests and response to places like the industrial coastline and downland landscape: Generically monoprints, they incorporate a variety of media and processes, including stencils and templates, scraffito, collage, carborundum, drawn, painted and other hand-applied information
