I have a new page on this very website titles ‘current’. I have uploaded eight new portfolios this week. They are a backlog of work created in 2023 and all of last year.

My reason for publishing them all at the same time, is that I wanted a very clean way of presenting them all together on the same webpage. I have written many times that I see my website as a sort of garden, a place where I collate, sort and tend my imagery. It is a dream factory for me, where I can allow myself to feel, notice and see evolution in what I do.

I notice patterns, themes, relationships, stylistic attachments that I have, certain motifs that I keep coming back to, or maybe the surfacing of new ones? Sometimes it’s just that I feel I’m noticing that the work is more relaxed, perhaps enjoying a return to more colour? A shift. A sense of something happening.

Regardless of internal thoughts and feelings, the fact is, it is nice to conclude an entire year. It allows me to feel ready for this one.
