“In a world becoming more and more this and more and more that, but above all more and more mediated, the direct line to your own experience was the only thing you could trust.” – Martin Amis

I am interested in how abstract/figurative painting continues to run through the blood stream of contemporary art and the changing nature of how we view such work as a public. This revolves around the basis that the boundaries between image and materiality are inherently unstable and shifting, ensuring the viewer rather than the author is central in determining meaning.
