West Coast Trees
West Coast Trees – Mountmellick Library and Gallery, Mountmellick, Co Laois.
The exhibition runs from 4th Feb until 3rd March 2011.
West Coast Trees’ is a project which aims to deliver a series of site specific tree paintings. I have long been fascinated by the shape trees adopt on the West Coast of Ireland. This shape, or form, presents as a distinctive windblown profile, one that is sculpted by the elements. The proximity of the Atlantic Ocean is a major determining factor in terms of influencing and moulding the shape of the trees.
I see this physical manifestation of ‘shape’ as having spiritual, psychological, elemental and socio-historical dimensions.
Trees have an energy which absorbs, responds and emits in a cyclical, generational, manner.
It is my intention to capture these layers, through the medium of art and to share my vision in a way that the observer can connect to and re-establish an already existing relationship with past, present and future.
‘West Coast Trees’ promises to be as diverse (due to the many layers it will explore) as it will be unique. The ultimate intention will be to provoke and challenge while at the same time, providing spiritual comfort.
