A gestural abstract work responding to the exploration of upland bodies of water storing and converting carbon for us.
It is part of a series based on my spending a lot of lonely time on the sphagnum moors, seeing them in every season. I allowed the qualities of the mosses and boggy upland wetlands to seep into me and later in the studio begin to paint, setting up a framework of marks to begin with which then form a new landscape on the canvas, with its own rules and rhythms. I aim to work with these elements on the canvas in a way the resonates with the forces I have been interacting with, the flow of the water, the trickling source of a river, the waving grasses and cotton grass flowers, the internal systems that are holding water and carbon that have been set up within this small patch of land over millennia. That is what I want the painting to say.
