Watercolour
120 x 120 cm
2025
My paintings focus on architectural subjects and the landscape they inhabit, often depicting Modernist buildings and structures that I have photographed in many different locations in the UK and around the world. Watercolour painting often has historical connotations with refined representations of nature. Using this medium to depict the modern world deploys it differently, remembering that it is often the medium of choice for architects to illustrate the planned populated vistas of idealised buildings. As well as landmark modern buildings, my paintings also focus on overlooked urban structures, such as roundabouts and walkways that we use to navigate spaces. For me they become ‘monuments’ in the Robert Smithson sense, reminding us of lost ideals or potential, but with their own strange beauty.
