I have made a vibrant collection of recent abstract paintings, developing a way of responding to the world which includes a secret – yet recognisable – language of colour and mark, both joyful and dark.
I made this work while exploring my own altered consciousness and then discovered the US artist Cy Twombly who has been a strong influence. The work in this exhibition has been driven by my passionate need to develop my privacy in a life closely monitored by carers.
The video ‘Sewing Box’ graphically expresses the slippery grip we have on memory and is particularly significant to me as I have short term memory loss.
