BANG – Blackstone Art Next Generation

My practice is one of experimentation within the materiality of paint, with a focus on painting as a sensory experience for both the creator and the perceiver. My paintings are evidence to a series of processes that I have developed over the last two years and find them bridging the gap between the action and field paintings of abstract expressionism through a contemporary and European sensibility. Working with loud and vibrant colour has always been an important part of my practice as one of the intentions of my work is to entrap the viewer in a world of diverse marks and colours and invite them to decipher the overgrown and overlaid compositions.

The three works I have submitted here were painted simultaneously within a series of five and represent the most developed examples of my own journey into painting at the time of completion.
