Women in their urban worlds

Territory

Started in the mid-1980s this inspiration of the artist's

own time in the city looks at both women's insularity

in the dog eat dog world of work,

using photocopied photographs of fashion mannequins

as a starting point, repeated or in sequence,

to evoke natural transformation.

Images are worked, printed and hand re-worked

several times with traditional art processes

taking place in between.

Use of painterly textural worked approaches with tactile qualifies manifests intangibility and

depth of human emotion.

Repetition of image in slick, glossy and even shiny, metallic or reflective print surfaces evokes the technological age.

The Writer

The Writer Communication beyond words or cultural language. Created using hand collaging, pastel drawing, image manipulation, printing, further hand sketching and final reworking in Photoshop

Wavering Forms

The forms of words, thoughts, feelings and moving, adjusting, forever editing forms of our minds. A fascination with the beauty of lettering, which takes on an ambiguity beyond the meanings of the written word.

Seclusion

Secluded in the privacy of her own thoughts and feelings. The positivity and specialness of these moments is evoked with rich, dark and mysterious tones. The words, through the lettering more obscure but with a heightened understanding only for the person within.
