Tartan
Architecture underpins her work, often painting places close to where she lives and works in South London - such as the grided tower blocks that embrace formal repetition or rows of terraced houses, fragmented by a random, lacy web of silhouetted branches in the foreground. There is a deliberate intent to make the subject ‘cinematic’, through an atmospheric and evocative depiction of social landscapes. The images are cropped creating ambiguity and tension. The relationship between what may have once seemed ordinary and everyday is given a sense of importance and permanence, the real and familiar becomes bizarre, dreamlike and staged.
