On the white bay. Sold

“My subject is the mangrove, living where I do on Moreton Bay with the mudflat literally on my doorstep. It’s a huge subject, my only subject, and there are infinite ways of seeing it, which is why my work appears at times ‘inconsistent’ in style and form. There are so many ways of approach, of reducing that scape. I cannot settle on one approach, as it would be untrue to both the mangrove and how I work, which is also a constant layering and scraping back, each type of work informing the other. These reductive pieces are one approach.”
