Lexicon Of Leaves
Lexicon Of Leaves is a limited edition print using archival inks on Canson Edition Etching 310gsm paper.
The series concerns the landscape as a personal space through which I seek to explore themes of society, self and change.
This collection itself reprocesses the 27 years I spent in the newsroom at the London Evening Standard. It examines the noise of constant (often quite negative) information present in society and juxtaposes it with vibrant explorations of feelings.
This print beautifully captures the essence of the original, which was created from many layers of mixed-media collage and acrylic paint, dancing between abstraction and representation.
The work deconstructs and pieces back together my time as a journalist — and employs collaged newspaper cuttings from stories that I’ve either written or sub-edited.
This action replicates my former role by editing what does and doesn’t make it to the canvas.
