Artwork Description

This artwork blends a simple message for bike riders, “Slow Down,” with a pictogram of a person relaxing, evoking both safety and mindfulness. It draws from everyday signs and reinterprets them to invite viewers to slow down in a broader sense—both physically and mentally. By merging practical guidance with a calming visual, the piece encourages deeper reflection on the pace of daily life. The simplicity of its design allows for a moment of pause, where ordinary instructions take on a more thoughtful meaning, inspiring a connection to the present and the need for relaxation

I describe figures within Urban Architecture. These figures are simultaneously, of their environment and detached from their surroundings, both anonymous and at the same time unique individuals in their dress and movement. The work captures unquantifiable moments we sometimes experience.
I am an Architect painting in oils, and bringing the simplicity of buildings to life. Future paintings are unfolding to enable the viewer to see the beauty of our urban surroundings with our iconic Australian style.
