Transience
Duct tape, 12' x 8'
Inspiration for image-making often comes from social interaction. These moments are important and humanity will always be a rich source of material, revealing interest and priorities, hegemony and mores, networking and relationships. Whether directly involved or as an observer, I enjoy the encounters and making references to moments where individuals have come together and are sharing spaces.
‘Transience’, is an image based on a moment of interaction where family and friends came together at an exhibition of art. The shared moment reflects the placement of their value and support. As the figures appear to communicate, sharing a moment, the composition is intended to encourage viewers to feel less of an observer and more as a participant, merging and completing the gathering. Importantly, for me, an aesthetic experience lies somewhere between these integral components: the work, the audience and the encounter. Interestingly, each of these components, and even the memories of them, are at times short lived, impermanent quickly passed over.

Singing Gates
acrylic and charcoal, 48" x 36"
Gates have long featured in the art of Bermuda. Situated along picturesque roads and offering glimpses into beautiful private gardens and vistas, gates also represent denial and control. Gates have also become associated with scandal and politics. I use this familiar icon in this series of four paintings to represent local sites of resistance.

Cow Pass is the original name for Khyber Pass, Bermuda.
