Portable kingdoms
There's lots of painting going on at the moment that doesn't involve paint.
I'm thinking about how to describe the concept of transferrable transient personal space, as in the space we carry with us.
Here's some thinking I've been playing with...
None of the sketches here quite express what I want to say. And I hastily add, none are images I want to paint yet - at this stage they're just explorations of a concept. They all play with the idea of space as a tangible place, a transferrable experience ( like space mist) some kind of personal experiential environs (a personal bubble or caul) but as yet I haven't envisaged imagry for the culture or the history that we carry with us inside that 'bubble'. There's something interesting about the idea of a membrane that separates as well as allows transfer.
