Original artwork description:

A painting exploring a bridge near River Tone in Taunton I call Graffiti Bridge. The image is inspired by all the graffiti, drawings, scratched marks and names that exist under the bridge.

I am drawn to all the various images, paintings, weathering and other marks made by people and nature, drawn towards ideas based upon Impermance.

In the realm of ancient Greek philosophy, the concept of impermanence first emerged in the writings of the renowned philosopher Heraclitus. Heraclitus introduced the idea of panta rhei, which translates to "everything flows." This concept highlights the notion that change is a constant and fundamental aspect of the universe.

Heraclitus is famous for his assertion that no one can ever step in the same river twice. This statement encapsulates his belief in the ever-present flux and transformation that characterises all aspects of existence. The river is constantly changing, as are we, and the world around us.

The contributions of Heraclitus have had a lasting impact on the development of philosophical concepts related to change, permanence, and the nature of reality. The tension between becoming and being continues to be explored and debated by philosophers and thinkers across cultures and time.
