'GLACIERS SERIES' PAINTINGS

These artworks were inspired by a trip to South Patagonia in Argentina where I hiked around different glaciers.This is a unique place on Earth because it has one of the largest water reservoirs of frozen water in the world. Chatwing (1977) described in his book In Patagonia: “I climbed a path and from the top looked upstream towards Chile. I could see the river, glinting and sliding through the bone-white cliffs with strips of emerald cultivation on either side. Away from the cliffs was the desert. There was no sound but the wind, whirring through thorns and whistling through dead grass, and no other sign of life but a hawk, and a black beetle easing over white stones.” These series capture that atmosphere with expressive textures in a delicate blue and pink palette.
