Original artwork description
The Moon is leaving us by a few centimetres every year. Nothing dramatic. Just physics.
(im)partial, 2025
Acrylic, watercolour and ink on mineral stone sheet
59 x 42 cm / 23.2 x 16.5 in (unframed)
This work exists as a single, unique original painting.
It is created using environmentally friendly materials.

CONTENTS, PACKAGING, SHIPPING & IMPORT:
The painting is titled, dated and signed on the reverse.
It is supplied unframed to ensure maximum protection during shipping and full framing flexibility. I recommend unglazed installation for optimal interaction with the artwork, unless museum glass or acrylic glazing is used.

Together with the receipt, it serves as formal documentation for collection records, resale and insurance.
The work is carefully wrapped in archival glassine paper and dispatched rolled in a wide rigid archival postal tube with moisture protection.
Shipping is free of charge worldwide, except to destinations with temporarily or permanently disrupted postal services.
The work is dispatched from the United Kingdom within 48 hours of cleared payment with tracked and signed delivery. Tracking details are emailed upon dispatch.
Estimated delivery times:
UK and Europe: 2–7 working days

Original hand-painted artworks are exempt from import duties in most countries. The work is shipped with the appropriate customs classification code to facilitate efficient, frictionless import. Where local taxes or fees do apply, they are payable by the collector in accordance with the regulations of the destination country.
MATERIALS & SUSTAINABILITY:
I create sustainable art and all materials are chosen as consciously as they are used.
The work is created with professional archival and lightfast acrylic, watercolour and ink on mineral stone paper — a surface composed primarily of calcium carbonate derived from limestone, with a smooth, velvety texture that combines the tactile quality of stone with the flexibility and lightness of paper. Unlike most traditional substrates, it does not buckle or warp when exposed to moisture. The layered pigments and particular qualities of the surface give the work a visual presence that shifts with ambient and directional light as well as viewing angle. The painting is alive and responsive to the conditions of its display environment.
Environmental consciousness lies at the heart of my material selection. Mineral stone sheet production requires significantly fewer natural resources and toxic additives than canvas or traditional paper - no deforestation, no heavy water use, no chemical bleaching. The paints used are water-based with low or zero VOC, and without the harmful solvents associated with oil-based mediums.
SERIES: Subliminal Sanctuary
'(im)partial' forms part of the Subliminal Sanctuary series, which explores the private territories that form beneath conscious awareness. These inner spaces are shaped by memory, instinct, emotion and imagination, creating a place of retreat from the demands and noise of the external world. They are not imagined as perfectly protected spaces, but as complex internal environments in which contradictory experiences can coexist.
Unease is allowed to exist alongside comfort, vulnerability alongside strength and uncertainty alongside the possibility of renewal. What matters is not escape, but the creation of enough inner space for experience to be absorbed and transformed. In this series, I consider the inner world as a place where one can temporarily suspend the need to define or resolve, allowing a state of being to emerge organically.
