Nostalgia: Summer

An abstract mixed-media piece investigating the nostalgia of childhood summers and the legacy of memory. Bright, bold geometric forms are covered in a wash of black charcoal to produce an energetic landscape of colour and movement, from which distant memories peer out and are tumbled together with the shadows and texture of blackened charcoal. Gouache, acrylic and compressed charcoal on a circular canvas, 2022.
