‘Icelandic Saga’
‘Icelandic Saga’ follows my journey on a tour of Iceland. Over lava fields, behind waterfalls, dancing on ice, descending lava tubes and disappearing into steam vents. This painting is a testimony to the geographical transformation of a place. It celebrates the longevity of friendships I made at art school with the two friends who accompanied me on this adventure.
‘Breaking Ground’
In this stop motion animated charcoal drawing, a figure is breaking through rocks. Pushing obstacles aside, the unstable ground cracking underfoot, falling through the patterns of rock inscribed by time. Entombed, and then the spirit rises again and begins the journey of the soul. My daughter, Amy Lee Jefferis, helped to compose the soundtrack with me.
