Traces of time, which scratch the surfaces of landscapes across the world and to which this painting practice responds, are folded into a dynamic but slowly achieved process. Here the tensions between spatial modelling and visceral, unconscious drives open up a gap through which the affect and meaning of each work appear.
Via such risky and transformative aesthetic processes this painting practice delivers its riposte to an imaginary preoccupied with masculine privilege, the regulation and exploitation of bodies, spatial order, cognitive control, visual mastery, measurement and surveillance, and instrumental reason.
Against these power plays, this painting practice delivers new forms of co-constitution by refusing discourses of mastery and control, by reversing hierarchies and by engaging with the transient resonances of unguarded and embodied psychic life.
It is from here that this improper landscape painting practice gathers its parts and orients itself, via the precarities and possibilities of the ‘flesh of the world’, towards deep and radiant time.
