Armorial Dwelling

This painting was made after the completion of a short animated film (entitled 'Crisium') in which I had drawn a building which morphed repeatedly into various architectural styles. It is a metaphorical representation with personal references which can be reinterpreted by the individual viewer. In fact I have recently recognised that part of this may refer to the city of Berlin where I lived for almost a year in my youth. It also represents an abandoned dwellings which is being reclaimed by the natural environment.
