Joe Stevens, ‘Portland Bill’, video/sound. Courtesy: Joe Stevens. I have treated these animated landscapes as a simplified drawing. I try to avoid putting in more than is necessary and I endeavor to balance the identity of the landscape, with the abstraction of the picture frame, reducing and simplifying the colour space. My latest body of work is halfway between photography and painting. I have been exploring the possibilities of how the surface can speak and I think there are a lot more possibilities yet for me to discover.
