Richly textural layers of acrylic paint, inks, pastels and gelli printed collage pieces create a tactile surface of abstract marks evoking eroded rocks and limestone outcrops alongside the large foreground’s forceful, linear shapes reminiscent of organic forms or underground caves.
A very limited colour palette of inky blues, chalky whites, ochres and earthy greens emphasises the textural qualities and the high horizon line suggests a feeling of awe. Everything has evolved from the weathered rock – the stone walls, houses and angular trees – going right up into the distant hills – like echoes.
