You are Welcome.
In this series I recreated the rich cacophony that one hears whilst walking past restaurants across the world. This reference to animated conversation, the cheery clinking of glasses and clanking of cutlery all become a song of remembrance to days in the not so distant past when one could gather and pass ideas around like a good bottle of wine.
My aim is to keep as many of these drawings together as possible. I recommend you buy a set rather than a single work.

Video
To accompany the octet of drawings ( you are also invited), I made a video to be projected from directly overhead. The video illuminates a tabletop with real-life images which mirror the themes of the works. I mixed the soundtrack to make the viewer feel as though they were walking past a busy gathering. I look for the soundtrack to play as ambient sound throughout the exhibition.
The video was shot soon after the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Most of the improvised conversation and action was about death and destruction reflecting how the shadow of war has been thrown far across the globe. In this piece, I started shifting from exploring private memory to collective trauma.
