What Lies Beneath 4

" What Lies Beneath " series is part of my larger body of works I dedicate to the Noosa River Everglades. Noosa River forms part of a unique biosphere and its tannin rich protected waters connect us to an extraordinary magical world.
Feeling the power and the fragility of Nature around me induces a sense of sacred which translates in an alternate reality. By entering imagination and calm, stillness and peace are the destination. My works on paper echo this spiritual journey into such incomparable places. Each mark is a shard of light that will enlighten your wall with a unique mix of sensuality and calligraphic elegance.
Using incised mark making enables me to channel these emotions. A photo is a direct perception of a moment; a frozen representational image in time and space. Printing it on art paper allows me to resonate with this reality while at the same time opening the image to another dimension. The carving action is the artistic gesture that singularises the print. Thousands of white marks slowly carved out of the print bring this other reality, creating something which was not already there with immediate and direct perception.
Each artwork is a unique original work of art on professional cotton watercolour paper. This series comes already ready to hang and framed in transparent Perspex. The dimensions given are of the Perspex frame size.
