Road Tripping and Other Paintings / 2021–2023
Oil on canvas
Drawn from a photographic archive of people, pets, and places encountered in daily life and travel, these works mix figurative and abstract gestures. Using dry brush, impasto, and patches of colour, they create a vocabulary that contrasts camera-like objectivity with subjective, emotional experience. The series is also an exploration of working on large-scale canvases that produce a cinematic effect and, through their size, hold a sculptural presence in space.
