GYRES 2 is part of the EMBEDDED IN THE FLESH OF THE WORLD series exploring memory embodied; reactivating gestures, marks, punctuations recalling encounters with/in the world. Touching, feeling, sensing, almost belonging. Using my sensuous physicality to create with natural/manufactured, new/discarded found materials. I choose to leave the marks of my passage, my making just as those marks have been left on/within me through my encounters. I am embedded in these forms.
Thinking about spirals and time and the ability to change; of water, of earth, of space – the eddies and currents. The Weddell Sea whose waters journey across expanses of our globe created initially on the surface by winds driving sea-ice and icebergs in a clockwise vortex, forming eddies 25-37 miles across; these vast gyres generate deep water currents that transport heat around the globe.

Embedded in the Flesh of the World: Gyres of Weddell Sea 2

The rich colours portray movent in the energy of the cosmos!

One of my favourite things is to explore the rocks, to head out over them, not knowing where the destination may be. It's the telling of the journey, rather than the destination that is important in this piece.

The painting is inspired by the fleeting nature of time and its memories. My starting point is 'time & tide wait for no man.'

Living in Bristol is magical. We have the excitement of the city along side many green spaces and spacious parks. You can start a walk off in the city and end up as if you have driven to the countryside. Lots of cool pubs on route helps!

I have created this piece using layers of paper, plaster, photography and vintage book pages. It’s a cute little piece but packs a punch. I like that people get up close to my work to see the intricate details and the depth of the piece.

Inspired by fields of buttercups during no-mow May, the yellows and greens were overwhelming.

I wanted the dark rich colours with gold leaf paint to create intrigue.

Disarranged protest painting. Potent if all things are equal, but unfortunately they are not. Ideologies change and reactions mellow as the fires die and the focus shifts. People protesting over what is about to be done. Crowds are feeling helpless, the active members choose to uproar. The cacophony, the clamour, voices are lost on the masses, mainly ignoring, hiding in the daily grind. The decisions have already been made or else they would not have had the courage to go public. Disarranged style, pockets of activity spread across the scene.

Late October Crowd

These beautiful inks create gorgeous jewels that shine!

The painting is inspired by time and the wait for a particular moment to arrive. The sea and its ebb & flow is a good metaphor for the passing of time.

The time approaches

This work really was a mysterious journey, as the painting progressed I became more and more like a voyager. I was sailing into the unknown and faced with challenges. There seemed to be a warrior evolving and unknown territory to explore. Medieval map makers would mark unknown areas 'Hic Sunt Dracaenas' - hence the title.
