Ode to Pluto
2015-2016
Ode to Pluto is a visual documentation of a two-year long project in which I worked initially from my subconscious mind, capturing images digitally in an immediate and reactive way and commencing a journey into painting initiated by a spontaneous decision to rescue my (long-passed) grandfathers oil paints from their dusty box in the attic. The project is evolving - from an entirely introspective exercise into exploring themes of where we can find feelings of comfort, safety and cohesion in the natural world (an antidote to consumerism) particularly with respect to mental health and well being. The end results fluctuate between the discordant and the serene, in acknowledgement of the difficulties the human race faces in light of our increasingly fractured relationships; both with each other, and our host planet.
