2020 - acrylic on canvas - three 190 x 40 cm panels on floor stand frames
The artist approached the Twisted Tales series by building on an original concept started a decade earlier in her ‘Puzzling Stories’ series.
She starts each work by painting both sides of an unstretched canvas then interrupts their linear narration by slashing each painted canvas into strips which she uses to create new works. Some strips are recomposed out of order, others are spiralled out of shape thus revealing their otherwise hidden side. The resulting paintings are quite unique and sculptural.
Each is a tail of complexity and duality juxtaposing chaos and composure, fragility & resilience, revelation & concealment.
