"Light Abstracted" @ ViewPoint Gallery / 2018

Artist Statement

Abstract art has always resonated deeply within me. I have long been inspired by the work of painters such as Wassily Kandinsky Arshile Gorky, Joan Miro and Jackson Pollock, to name a few. In particular, the work of Roberto Matta has informed my thinking in creating the images of “Light Abstracted”.

Over the years I have taken many overnight flights. I always
book window seats that allow me to shoot aerial photos.
“Light Abstracted” presents photos taken while on those flights, especially during take off and landings. Photographing the night sky and lights in motion while experimenting with apertures, exposure times and camera movement has yielded these vivid images that incorporate Abstract Expressionist concepts of colour, line and gesture.

I hope your enjoy your flight.
