THE ARTIST:
The structure of his current work plays on the two dimensional nature
of painting. 'Lifting' the canvas from its stretcher reveals the space
behind. The 'flat' nature of the floating canvas and the illusion of
traditional picture space are made explicit. In terms of content this offers
possibilities in contrasting the real and the imagined.
