Reflecting Space and Time
"It's the incompleteness of artworks that I find fascinating. Like ancient detached frescoes, where bits are gone imagined or never were.
​"Painting is about the beauty of space and the power of containment" Sam Francis.
TIMELINE Acrylic on canvas 100 x 100 cm
Through intent or not the space becomes the essence, with detailed parts that drift off into nothingness." KR
LINES OF THOUGHT Acrylic on canvas 100 x 150 cm
"I often purposely paint over a finished artwork to make it incomplete,
to create a space - for what is lost - and then the fragments that remain tell the story." ​
Abstract and diverse artworks are inspired by MA, the Japanese philosophy that emphasises the importance of empty space, not as a void but as a meaningful presence that enhances the elements around it.
THE CLEARING
BUBBLING THOUGHTS
As with thoughts, lines cross, and make shapes - places to dwell.
Like a pot formed from clay to create the space inside that becomes the essence. Artworks are unfinished or distressed to create the perfect imperfect.
