Review

"The artist observes and records beauty in the least likely of places, such as the oily grey mud and waters of a London river where a frond of seaweed drifts by and occasional vivid colours of a passing blue buoy or a red balloon. Industrial shapes of cranes and gas works emerging from fogs of silvers, golds and greys. He includes a passing helicopter, seagulls chatter and a plane as soundtrack for his gentle observation. In his etchings the contrasts are dramatic in a different way, the mountains and cliffs of Ireland stand against the tactile softness of wet sand and seaweed or the luminosity of sea and sky. In Dreamfields he has used double exposure on film to create ghostly landscape images. I get the impression of an artist who is sharply observant, but find no hint of criticism in what he observes, only a patient watchfulness. His work can be hypnotically serene." JUDY RUSSELL - POET

The Bone Trees - Editioning in progress
.
The title emerged organically, entropy and decay dominate this desolate, dystopian landscape. Evoking the writing of JG Ballard and British war artists, Kit Nevinson and Paul Nash, the central sculptural, skeletal tree also references Henry Moore’s Knife Edge, which I grew up with in Greenwich Park.
Autobiographically, The Bone Trees continues my explorations in a personal geography.

The Night Tree - soft ground etching and aquatint

The Night Tree - soft ground etching and aquatint on Hahnemulle natural 300gsm, 20x30cm
.
The 6th etching in Wanted:Dead&Alive suite features a ‘scarecrow’ chestnut in a nocturnal snowy setting.
.
This truncated tree has since rotted down and it’s form no longer exists but it’s character remains.
.
A winter wonderland backlit by a hazy moon, snow flakes to settle on bare wood.
Scintillating luminescence sparkles in the crystalline air, connecting myriad branches deep into a mysterious forest.

Newsflash! Latest etching in my ‘Wanted-Dead&Ali

Newsflash! Latest etching in my ‘Wanted-Dead&Alive’ suite is hot off the press!
.
A truncated tree stands alone on a scorched and barren plain. It’s dormant companions loiter in the background like statues
.
Sculptural form reflect my internal orthopaedic geography. Speak to me of solidity and impermanence. The landscape is Ballardian, entropic and apocalyptic yet alive with primordial potential

Book of poems, paintings, and drawings by refugees

Book of poems, paintings, and drawings by refugees in Direct Provision Centres in Ireland, where asylum seekers can wait up to 10years for legal status.

Proud to say my mother @rosywilson1 instigated, directed, and facilitated this arts council funded project which culminated in the anthology. Everyone Comes From Somewhere Else. Here she is last night @signalartscentre members exhibition with copies of the book.
