Exploring the quiet negotiation that occurs when boundaries soften and forms begin to coexist. Structured elements, suggestive of land, architecture, or internal frameworks, press gently into one another, their edges no longer fixed but subtly yielding. Colour moves across these divisions, pooling and bleeding, as if something is being exchanged without clear origin or ownership. The painting holds a tension between separation and union: distinct parts remain, yet they are altered by proximity. What emerges is not a merging into sameness, but a layered presence - an agreement to occupy the same ground, to hold and be held within it.
Employing scraps of cardboard and newsprint as a base layer, and gradually built up with gesso, sand and layers of acrylic and household emulsion paints, before finally some light layers of oil paint. The black border brings an element of order and structure to a chaotic and vibrant composition.
