Figurative Works

Most of these figurative works are from a series of works intended to capture a surreal, futurist and visionary response to the contemporary world.

Each canvas is primed with a black household gloss before a collage of found images is painted in oil - the shiny, black monolithic surface allows the colour to resonate as if from a digital screen, while the choice of images in the collage points to a sinister, melancholic and absurdist response to the contemporary world.

The 'Oprheus' painting is from an abandoned series of human-sized portraits of Classical figures.
