The Murder of Crows, The Line Between,
​Wexford Arts Centre &
​Monster Truck Gallery Dublin Ireland:
​
​
Cow House Studios, where I spent my residency in Ireland, is literally what it says, a converted cow house on a working farm in pastoral County Wexford. From the moment that I arrived in this landscape one of the first things which I experienced as I travelled through the surrounding countryside where the vast flocks, or Murders, of crows which make it their home.
The way that these birds use space, be it wide open or confined, struck an immediate chord with my own consideration of volumes.  Although this part of the installation came to me very quickly it took several more weeks of experimentation to refine the spatial paintings , based on the Heaven & Earth Diptych that I would use for the final piece and many months of construction.
