Gloucester Mural
In Summer of 2022 I was commissioned to design and paint a large mural on the outside wall of a new community garden in inner city Gloucester. Davies and Duckworth ran workshops with community groups and local primary schools to engage with the residents.

In the Woods
In the Woods, oil and ink on calico. On display in Milsom Place, Bath. Sep - Oct 2022
A sculptural painting in landscape form. 870 x 60 cm
Folds and creases in the canvas and the uneven edges suggest the topography of the ground. The painting is presented horizontally, inviting the viewer to walk along the length of it experiencing a physical feeling of immersion in woodlands. The imagined landscape was created without visual reference, using only recollections of the physical action of daily walks in the woods. The action of footsteps on earth, the pressure on the surface through the walking motion, the inhalation of unpolluted air, the smells and sounds of nature are imbibed through the body and transferred onto the canvas as a direct result of the felt experience.
Like a tapestry, the artwork has a start and end point, evoking ideas of storytelling through its length, folds, and undulating creases on the surface.
