About this artwork
I reflect upon the anthropocentric dualism we find ourselves in ... the mistaken illusion of separateness from one another and our environment. This idea of ‘us‘ vs. ‘them’ is what I feel is driving the common landscape to feel upside-down. I paint the ethereal, inner landscape, the place where the Caterpillar asks Alice “Who are you?”. I realized that there is always a dividing line that appears in my work, and I decided to explore that one detail.…
Is it the horizon line of a landscape? Is it the divisive line between two halves of a problem, a person or perspective? This work is named 'Yugen' - (n) a Japanese expression which describes the 'feeling' one has when contemplating beauty. This painting is sized to reflect our current landscape ... it is 78.75 inches (or 2 metres) ... the standard in Covid-19 Social Distance Etiquette. Note: the imperfections in the wood board form part of the unique character of the artwork.

« My paintings stress both the physical reality of the landscape and its psychological value, a dialogue between place and being. »
