49 Jan Elliott
The recollection or idea of a place is more evocative and fascinating to me than its physical appearance. Working intuitively from memory and imagination, using layers of texture and colour, I strive for luminous effects that are informed, but not determined by, the observation of nature. I am interested in spiritual and emotional qualities, not imitative realism.
The natural features that are my subject express more than materiality. Sky conveys the transcendent, that which is outside of, and greater than, ourselves; water indicates the ungovernable forces of nature; and land is both our home and the material of which we are made. Blurring the transitions between these elements, I aim to create a degree of uncertainty around their boundaries, to provoke curiosity about these ambiguous places and invite pause and reflection on these themes.
