Considering the sixteen small, colorful works I have on display until the end of January 2016 at Preview International Fabrics in the Richmond Plaza I settled on the following:
The night sky like treacle creates shards in my mind. Julie Clarke (2015) |
If
you could write but one line to express a feeling of the city you may feel
thoroughly trapped in the intersections and complexity of the architectural
abundance that surrounds us. This is how I eventually felt since by using lines
I was in fact writing with paint, however, my first intention was to express
emotion through line, color and form, which lead me to investigate a minimal
aesthetic - a skeletal structure of sorts that eventually gave way to
considering the structure of bridges, those that allow us to traverse land and
sea and conduits that bind us to memories, much faded now between that which
has passed and that which will pass.
Many thanks to Paul Sparks for allowing me to place the works on his walls.
