The Works explore the experience of mesmeric moments when gazing at the glittering reflected light on the surface of the sea; images on the brink of dissolving without relinquishing their recognisable origins. The question of how to render the quality of the experience, to create an emotional charge for the observer – contemplative and nebulous – almost spiritual. 

It is a series of paintings & drawings derived from my own photographic images. The intention is for the quality of the medium to respond to the light and sea’s surface without being representational – the whole to be a record of a relationship I’ve had with a set of materials and a methodology.
