| 关于此艺术家 |
I paint in oil on canvas and create sculpture from oil based materials. ( plastic usually, pieces of coloured string found on the beaches, discarded and dirty )
It is always my ambition to recreate an energy within my paintings – drawn from women and their movement. I look for and find dance and rhythm as well as melancholy and shadowed thought. Nothing finds its way onto the canvas or into the sculpture without first passing through this very particular consciousness. - where fragments disturb the bright coloured paint , and invest the empty spaces. I am, of course, a woman – I have fashioned four children, loved and been loved, felt rejection and loss – been the maker and the destroyer. |

2008 string collected from Scottish beaches lifesize |
|
– I collect the string from Argyll and Hebridean beaches. These sculptures come from our shores – either from us, perhaps our fish farms or boats or, they have travelled many miles and are now part of our land. I want the figures to represent us in that sense – our new beauty |
String Women
2008 string life size |
|
Thses string women down by the waters edge have been made from string washed up on our beaches. They represent both the immigrant arriving and the beach wanderer who has been here for generations. They are markers of our joint defiance in the face of poverty and environmental crisis |

|
The torso is made form string - this is a new material for sculpture full of new volcabulary of forgotten days by the sea,memories of a fishing industry, fears for the environment, shared and secret conversations |
