Painting for Tomorrows yesterday

Where do paintings begin and where they end? For me it starts with a sensation; an inkling that is conjured by something I’ve seen, felt and occasionally heard. I get lost in how to distill this awareness and communicate through my work. It’s often the feeling of something quite delicate that I chase. It’s a present moment, that though the process of painting becomes tomorrow’s yesterday. The imagery of this body of work comes from window views from places I have lived (from times past) that intersect with the immediate view of a recent gaze – so that time itself is no longer linear, but warps like an Einstein theorem where spacetime is bent by memories. The views contained by the places we inhabit connects us as all humans. For me the act of looking out become a scaffold I can hang and build these sensations on. Memory and the present coexist in my hand the moment the brush begins to find the image. Marks are made and subtracted. A slow dance in time begins -the pulls, the gliding and forcing of the brush and the more physical marks with the scrapes. For me watching the work is as important as making marks in this dance. Oil paint was invented for this journey. Its transparency and its play with opacity is a love story between the artist and the medium. The pandemic paintings of my last show grew wild in captivity. In this collection I’ve deliberately restricted my pallet to compress a sense of ephemera. I’m interested in the question of the intention become more singular and sharper …and its sense as an object more heightened. As a fourth generation Australian I’m conscious that I am (perhaps) the first of those generations that don’t own the idea of place they observe and listen to. The paintings are of a place but it’s something we can’t hold, conquer, or attach too. They become a view, a window, and for me also a longing in time, a daydream.
