Mysteries Fourteen
By

2016
Using colours from Roman Frescos this is fourteenth in a series that responds to 2000-year-old painting. It alludes to ambiguous openings, possible portals and illusive planes. It plays with patchy and apparently faded surfaces suggesting that damage can be an interesting aesthetic in itself.
It is a response to a slightly confusing visual experience.
The painting could be categorised as a transcript or transposition.
