about mark russell
 
     

I am interested in art as illusion and in this particular case, (with 'Light Objects'), creating a sense of suspended reality by freezing or juxtaposing photographs and found objects in a hope of freeing them from their original sense of loss...of something passed.

 

 

 

 
    Through the process of transformation I hope to blur the meaning between the original and the new, providing a void in which the viewer can form their own interpretation.
With the animal series of paintings my concern is with the ritualised process of creation, whereby the resulting image is a signifier to the journey's end...where the illusion begins  
    ...enter the beast!
