Home/Place
The Home/Place collection explores the idea of belonging - what it means to grow up somewhere, leave, and return; how a landscape holds memory; how the physical character of a place gets under the skin. After returning to Cornwall in 2021 after years away, these questions are personal for me, as much as philosophical.
The works in this collection tend to be warmer, more intimate than her other bodies of work, concerned with the feeling of a place rather than its grandeur. They explore familiar ground: the fields and lanes of North Cornwall, the interplay of farmland and moorland, the light at the end of the day when everything looks like it belongs exactly where it is.
These are paintings for rooms where you want to feel at home.
