DREAM REEL, 2003/4  

 

 

The 'Dream Reel' series is a loosely-linked group of small canvases, that are a mixture of sparse, blurred landscapes, fleeting moments of classical romance, cinema references and TV interference.

Top Row: Movie, Gold, Insects, Pagan, Haze

Middle Row: Flicker, Wave, Vista, Crop, Ripe

Bottom Row: Geology, Echo, Piazza, Secret, Heaven

"They suggest the frozen frames of a film or a video tape. Using a new technique of merging photo-imagery and prepared artwork, spontaneously within the camera (involving multiple exposures), I have created a mood that is simultaneously inviting and disturbing. The finished piece is then enlarged, re-touched, re-worked and mounted on canvas"
