The artist’s imagery visualises an extraordinary universe located in the borderland between familiar reality and unknown fantasies. Around a central figure located in a natural landscape, or in the definable space, flowers, insects, animals and birds lie placed in relationship to small figures and geometrical forms, so that the result robs the viewer of all sense of solid ground underfoot. In viewing these paintings, one is continually reminded of childhood imagination and of the magical but often grotesque world of the fairy tale; everything is ambiguous, and consequently many interpretations are possible.
