Harris Courtin Gallery,
Paddington 2004
Artist's statement:
I am interested in man's attempts
to understand, contain and display his world – the distance or
space he thereby puts between himself and nature. The paintings variously
draw on composite scenes of reality and remembered and real views for
reference.
The "Interiors" body of work was created after home
renovations when the "inside
spaces",
the domestic world, were of overriding concern to me. Objects and their
relationship to surrounding spaces were examined in a decorative and
playful manner.
