EVOCATION AND EROS
5 June - 5 July 2014
My canvases and works on paper made since the sixties have been concerned with a personal interest in the Australian Aborigines, their life, culture and the desert in which they live.
Painting for me celebrates the mysterious, the Australian landscape and culture, providing a spiritual stimuli within which I am concerned……interpreting values in subjective expressions……the inner life or spirit, rather than describing facts.
In my work I wish to project a profound aura of silence, optimism, surprise, joy, and above all deep love reflecting the mystery and spiritual resonances linked with my personal interaction with the Aborigines and their land.
