Artist statement
Life has a strange way of coming full circle and my
reconnection with Art has been exactly that.
The image of the closed and open box depicts the
struggle I have had to not simply be a bystander with Art but how to become engaged again.
Through the development of ArtRageUs studio I have often had
to think outside the box to inspire the Artists I work with, but failed to
break free of my own restraints.
The images are a combination of old and new,
reflecting vibrant, colour and sharp lines, uplifted by
the vibrant artwork that surrounds me each day. Hopefully now I can take a step
out of the box.
