When you walk passed a person you only really see the
moment within that section of time. This painting to me personifies the title
of my new collection of paintings ‘You Think You Know Me’. I have been once again
experimenting with placing a figure within a constructed environment. This is a
man now finding himself on the margins of society left reflecting on the
fleeting prestige of his yesterdays. I wanted the painting to hold quite a
hallucinatory vibe. The cats, broken golden cage and the kite with a key
attached all seem as if they belong to a world of half sleep and we are perhaps
watching a man’s past and present collide together.
