↓ THE ART ↓
"This series responds to memories of moments in nature from the Winter Wild Artist Residency in 2021. In creating these paintings I relied on the precariousness of memory to create form, colour and composition. I'm interested in what elements of memory remain and what disappears as time passes, and what that says about ourselves and our experience of the natural world."
