Urban Landscapes
Conceived as a series of paintings, but growing to include photography and collage, this project is concerned with conveying the exhilaration of travelling at speed through urban landscapes. Particularly emotive at twilight, the world seems full of endless possibilities. The night is young, as they say, and the thrill of the unknown and myth of the future beckon. |

In the end, the concrete passage of the urban rollercoaster that rises above normal road, or sinks us below, ultimately fails us with its inability to deliver utopian values, through traffic jams and pollution while maintaining a monotonous and purely functional generic appearance. What fascinates me is the way these environments we pass through are overlooked and go unnoticed, but contain such stillness and decaying beauty.
