Information
Different works in bandages have spanned several years. They simultaneously point to sites of trauma, healing and protection. They have skin and publishing adjacent qualities of recto/verso folds and wrinkles. They are of the body and of the landscape with the open gauze weave types historically developing around the Gaza region. Whilst they are particular, holding an individual’s trauma they are also generic and recognisable world-wide. Some of the bandage works are closer to the body, have touched skin and are blotted in corporeal fluids, others are closer to the landscape with mountain and valley folds resonating with encountered terrains. They are inextricably linked to both.

Information
Dedicated to Elaine and Ann
A distilled reflection on the loss of two close cousins who were born a year apart and also died a year apart, both aged 53.
53 is the atomic number of iodine. It is the heaviest mineral required for health by the human body. Because of its specific uptake in the body it is also used as a non-toxic radiocontrast in medical investigative procedures and also as a radioactive isotope to treat thyroid cancer.
This work is also an exploration of video as painting, of slow looking and gradual changes and the return to a fresh canvas to begin again.
