About
Reality may be regarded as wholly unacceptable. (At present, and as far back as we can see into the past, it takes the form of an unbroken string of cruelties. It pains, maltreats, and kills us. It is unjust, pitiless, pointless, and hopeless. We are at its mercy, and we are it.)
"Gerhard Richter: October 18, 1977" By Robert Storr
I use my work to exploit the visual language of the human condition, painting is the perfect medium for this as it is a fixed entity, your mind and imagination is what allows it to move, but the image remains fixed and this is important as you can always find your way back. My work looks at the struggles of mental health and the relationship between this the human condition and ultimately our mortality.
