Made in the Moment
These paintings formed part of my Made in the Moment solo exhibition at the
Fisherton Mill Gallery February 2024.
WHY FLORAL VASES…?
I had no idea at the time, they just appeared.
In an attempt to understand I did some research which suggested the following.
​
Still Life – can be a celebration of material pleasures or a warning on the shortness of life.
Oddly, this was the very same theme of a previous painting collection of mine ‘Memento Mori’.
​
The research continued to suggest that in modern art simple still life arrangements have been used as a neutral basis for formal experiment.
In dream lore, the flowers are supposedly represent the things that make us happy and the vase is a symbol of stability.
