ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Ripped from the streets of Naples and made in the same year, this artwork is my postcard from this beautiful city. Church information, political messages and circus notices all feature in this piece and all vying for space to be seen and heard. Torn from billboards around the area of Piazza Cavour and Piazza Museo Nazionale this joyful combination of colour and vibrancy of which I have drawn inspiration from, characterise exactly the sense of excitement I have when seeing the already torn posters forming walls of decayed beauty on every street corner. My work is then to re-apply these torn fragments in a rapturous and magical formation. Placed on to thick cardboard to continue the paper and textured theme then given a coat of ochre paint as a backdrop, the fragments of tears are then applied in an instinctive, textural and rhythmical manner. 'Naples 18' will give the viewer a snapshot of the streets of Naples in one place and at one time.
