We The People No.27

This is the 27th instalment in my "We the People" series, in this work I have used another experimental method in layering and adding textures of paint to the paper. This latest work again explores glimpses and distorted images of people passing by that I have encountered in the city, perhaps the audience will find something of themselves or someone they know in this work.

This paper artwork is mounted on foam board with double sided tape. The dimensions of the paper artwork are 50x70cm and the foam board dimensions are 58x78cm, there is a 4cm boarder around the artwork for additional framing and protection of the paper.

I find that my art enables me to express elements of my world that can't necessarily be seen by the naked eye, its an attempt at conveying something a bit intangible. Abstraction is the primary way I communicate my ideas and experiences in art.
The naive and somewhat primitive lines, shapes, colours and textures I use are my attempt at capturing the atmosphere, personality or feeling of a place or person I have encountered in my life, realism or a photograph in my opinion doesn't always capture these elements of the world.
I feel that my art brings these to the surface...it shows the soul of something, somewhere, or someone. Perhaps you will see someone you know within my strange works, maybe even yourself.
