From lockdown to studio
Following months of painting at home, it became possible to work in the studio again. The small sheets of khadi paper gave way to a larger scale. Oil paint replaced gouache and an expansiveness re-entered the tight and nervous world of the detailed lockdown gouaches.

The soap series focuses on our confinement during 2020-22 through the image of an everyday bar of soap. We were repeatedly told to wash our hands. The small paintings result from hours of balancing water, brushes, tea, paints etc in various corners of our home. The ritual of washing and where we do it has a new relevance. I’ve battled with composition, light and colour on a very small scale, filling the hours of each day of lockdown and documenting a tense time through still life.

oil paint on silk saris
Mostly objects that have strong family connections , like the caravan which belongs to Dan, who has Roma roots. The coffee pot was made on board ship during WW2 by Kate’s grandfather. She never met him as he didn’t survive the war, but she cherishes the connection this pot gives her.

These precious possessions were lent by friends for ongoing research about what connects us to our cultures, histories and identity. The little Ethiopian coffee cups are used every day by Catherine who has a strong connection with the country and creates beautiful paintings about it. The old tie was worn every day without fail by Elaine’s dad, even if he was gardening.

A song about peace by Pete Seeger. It’s inspired by a Cossack folk song that describes how flowers were picked by young girls who’d chosen husbands, the husbands joined the army and the flowers are growing on their graves.
Today flowers are also threatened by chemicals and GMO crops and need to nurtured along with all diversity.

This is the second painting charting the flowers in my garden. On this occasion the fabric is so transparent that the paint casts shadows on the wall behind giving the flowers a three dimensionality.
