I have been working with the
circle as a symbol over the past three years.
The idea began during an amazing expedition to Greenland and the Canadian Arctic in 2011, and has been an ongoing process of discovery, research and travel since, including three series of artworks, a cultural experience in the Sacred Valley of the Incas in Peru in 2012, and two art exhibitions.
I use the circle as a shape
to explore and to celebrate, as it is so simple and yet so profound, embedded
in cultures internationally. My circle paintings juxtapose random and geometric
patterns, observing the co-existence of predictable and unpredictable
relationships. They also observe the interconnected relationship between the
individual and the whole.
I find the circle imagery positive and uplifting,
as we can all find a way of relating to this universal shape and symbol. I have
enjoyed the meditative practice of making the paintings, focusing on color,
shape and pattern and allowing the creative process to guide me.
