Artist Statement
My paintings reflect a fascination with architectural space and the hard edged industrial materials used 
in its construction. During the creation of this series of paintings I have continued to explore city buildings 
and their spatial relationships through the surface of the canvas.
I have developed a painting process whereby I repeatedly work my surface, building it up and breaking 
it down whilst incorporating the grid, line and colour. I use this layering technique to convey a sense of 
the city's historic and contemporary existence. I simplify the architectural structure so that it is merely 
represented by the essence of space.
