… there is no there there …

Gertrude Stein

Contrapposto is used to describe how sculpture contains opposing actions that play against each other as a way to create movement and tension. This term perfectly describes the tension that resides in my paintings as I try to both dislocate and locate myself as physical matter in space. Embodied experience is translated through the language of layering, revealing and re-layering paint as I struggle to describe my location/dislocation in the constant of change.

This exhibition is supported by Wicklow County Council.
