This work explores our human, everyday experience of the sea and it's effect on our wellbeing. Emerging science has revealed that spending time in ‘blue space’, immersed in the colours of the sea and sky, is proven to improve creative decision making and changes our brainwaves significantly.
‘Blue Space 1 – Redounding Wave’ explores the different ways light and colour expose the essence of a place. What experience, memory, mood and time reveal about a well-known location and in turn how being in a place changes you.
Transparency, opacity, tone and colour are used to form shape and depth. Images are built out of simple elements, focusing on creating a rhythmic dynamic between colour intensity and retreating or advancing hues.
The abstraction that results does not intend to dispense with a recognisable subject, but to create works which explore slices of light and colour while still bearing a relationship to the original object.
