Winter Heart

In a timeless and traditional blue and white theme, this small delicate work manifests a plethora of surprising shapes and textures telling a visual story about my interior past winter season.

The pristine landscape is punctuated by exquisite little "artefacts" ; separate but related; symbolising states, events, episodes and possibilities...

Some are "found", like the fragment of willow-ware unearthed from my garden (depicting a bridge!) Others are "made"; stitched, blown, applied, woven, layered... Oh my heart!

Full of traps and full- stops, doors ajar and shut, treasures; what melting, cracking, patching and flowing is going on.... A lot happens under the surface, and is sometimes revealed.

FOR GOD IS GREATER THAN OUR HEARTS, AND HE KNOWS EVERYTHING.
—1 John 3; 20b
