ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This image is one of a series of 'breath' paintings I started during lockdown in London, UK. The significance of breath has been so much on our minds at this time. This piece is my visuallisation of an internal breath, bounded by our bodies, before it is released into the world. I started to think about other boundaries - those imposed upon us and those which we impose upon ourselves. The image felt quite tender, almost like an embrace. Working with inks I found myself allowing the colours and shapes to flow in a freer way than before, working intuitively, never really knowing how they would turn out. So often I have taken the extraordinary life giving action of breathing for granted - I felt the need to honour it.
