MAN & LAND

"Man & Land", my new exhibition, focuses essentially on my special relationship with the natural world and includes some of my favourite places on the Isle of Man. Human figure are also given a decisive role in this new body of work. Caught between dramatic skies and harsh land, man finds a wild, open space to engage in the thoughtful contemplation of nature. It is a theme which has always fascinated me, and here on the island, I have found most of the ingredients which enable me to explore further this spiritual connection between man and land as well as other states such as solitude and isolation.
Whatever the subject, I hope that the strong sense of mood and atmosphere displayed in my work will speak to the Manx people whose land inspires me greatly.
