My new work is about the fractured, layered moments in time that create memory; it is about the images that are on the fringes of our consciousness, and that remain with us because they are how we experience the everyday moments of our lives. I am layering and combining multiple images and looking at them all at the same time! I want to capture the emotional experiences of the moments included in my imagery.
My new series contains the key elements of my previous work, in that my watercolours are still high contrast, with saturated colours, but the images now have a fractured quality, that, to me, represents how memory is broken and contains pieces of realism. At first glance, the images appear quite abstract, but as one approaches, parts of images come together to tell the “story”.
