SOUND TRANSLATIONS​


Paintings translating sounds into colour in a variety of ways – works representing daily sounds, ​or simplified depictions of the places the sounds came from.

​The three most recent works are abstract interpretations of notes extracted from recordings of birdsong at home in May 2020, when birdsong noticeably pierced the silence of the lockdown.
