Després d'Espanya 2015-2016
During an artist residency in Arenys de Munt (Spain) I became interested in the issue of scale and proportion, particularly in terms of man-made structures and the environment. I have always been drawn to expressive mark-making and curious about the effect of well designed spaces. So the combined effect of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s beautiful ‘German Pavilion’ and the work of Antoni Tàpies in the Fundació Antoni Tàpies (both in Barcelona) underpinned my response to this place.
Works from this series were exhibited in 'Look Out' at Solander Gallery, Wellington in 2015 ... in 'Common Ground' at The Art Vault, Mildura also in 2015 and in 'Building a Presence' at Northart Gallery, Auckland in 2016.
