This painting stands on its own and is also part of a Triptych called 'Habitat 2'. Traces of sandals merge with surrounding habitat. This collection is painted on canvas that is stretched on Aluminium stretcher bars, which are light and strong and don't warp. 120 x 100cm. These habitat paintings are conceptual portraits and they mirror Humankind's interdependence with our Planet. The identity of the figure (transformed in to a more general human presence) merges via the imprints of personal items of clothing, with the figure's natural surroundings. The figure seems to be dissolving in to the landscape or maybe floating above it, resting within it and integrally interwoven with her natural surroundings; human and nature as one. In this work, the visual reference material has been sourced by collecting Fungi. I have been reading Merlin Sheldrake's 'Entangled Life' and I am influenced in this work by his scientific investigations of Fungi and how they create incredible networks that are hidden, yet sustain so much of the living world. Lockdown has forced me to stick close to home and my Artwork is reflecting this; my 'muses' are my daughter, my dog of 15 years, Teddy and myself. I have therefore started this third series of Climate Change paintings; Habitat paintings that focus on myself, my daughter and my dog and our relationship to our Environments. However, these specific starting points are only springboards for conceptual portraits. In this painting, the figure stands her ground; the traces of the figure do not disappear. I am thereby expressing hope that our Planet can remain in balance; with humans existing alongside Nature in respectful partnerships. Like tributaries to a river, the 'streams' in my Artwork are flowing towards a cumulative focus around those things that matter to me. Through the personal, I aim to access what matters to all of us: our Planet and its well being and healthy continuity. I have lived through a time of catastrophic damage to the Natural World; seeing our populations of wildlife decimated and habitats destroyed. I would like, through my Artwork, to express my love for the Natural World and to become as powerful a voice as possible for helping the Planet to heal.
