2007/8 Work

These works are based on buildings found around the Stoke - on - Trent area. I became interested in the apparent need for regeneration of buildings around this area and looked mainly at the aesthetics of the decay and deterioration of these places, focussing on certain areas more than others in relation to the state of the building. I find the half painting, half drawing element to these paintings most interesting as they mirror both drawing plans for regenerated architecture and represent a more abstract view that these buildings will eventually be demolished and fade from the landscapes, being replaced by contemporary projects.
