Just a Memory comes ready to hang in an oak floating frame.
Just a Memory is from my ‘Memory’ Series which focuses on creating works that rely on my memory of places that I recall from the past. In this way the artwork is abstract because our memories are influenced by a myriad of elements that affect our interpretation. Studies show our memory of places is affected by our corresponding emotions which also change our perception of colour and spacial aspects. If I allow the painting to flow naturally it’s really interesting to see the outcome knowing that my memory of a place is probably quite different to the actual scene and most likely quite different to someone else’s recollection.’ Stephanie Laine
