The Vigil (a study of the reclining figure, appropriated) 

 

‘My work can be as simple as opening a window in a gallery’ 

 

You walk into a gallery, a window is open to the street below, a telescope points out toward a churchyard, its lens trained upon a single fresh white rose sitting silently on long-forgotten grave. And while the sounds of life may interrupt and animate the gallery, this distant, quiet memorial goes unnoticed. The telescope presents a vision of the living and the lifeless, the seen and the unseen – as it silently invites the viewer to continue with the vigil.
