Painting images gathered from our surroundings, places the image in the context of art history. A visible means of deciphering the symbols and signs embedded in the mythologies of mass culture today; painted representation inhabits the space between symbol and icon. This is a conscious return to representational painting as a means of showing the multiple truths surrounding an unattainable “absolute truth”. Acknowledging, both the static and dynamic image together with the passage of time. Painting becomes a marker for the ever changing mythology of the culture of its time. Prophecies, received from the past, reflects on what the spectator is seeing in front of the canvas at the present moment.
