“Unveiled”

This portfolio depicts the familiar in an unfamiliar way. The veils of colour and movement, of people and trappings, have been lifted. Ethereal lighting and frozen streaks of cloud add drama and motion. Reflections from glass-still water invite us to hold our breath.

Objective observation gives way to personal interpretation. The document is replaced by imagination and becomes the prerogative of the artist and the viewer together.
