Even In The Dark

2025: 2nd – 31st May : Solo exhibition of this collection at Green Hill Arts Gallery, Moretonhampstead.

Can we reach beyond our senses to find one another 

Even in the dark, when all hope feels lost…

I have been meditating on one of the key dichotomies at the heart of my human experience. 

Only I know what it feels like to inhabit my own life; to love that which I love, to grieve that which I have lost. No one else can know what it feels like to be in my experience. I am, in that way, alone. And yet, I am always intricately connected; to all that I can sense and all that is beyond my perception; to all that has been and to all that ever will be.  

I have begun to wonder if it’s possible to become more aware of these invisible threads; to realise that we are connected in more ways than one, that there are infinite channels of light that weave us all together. This could be a way knowing that we are never isolated, however alone we may feel, and that we can never be truly separated. So that in the moments when our understanding of life shifts or falls away into ruin, when the picture we painted for ourselves dissolves, when suddenly we cannot tell land from sky – there will be something left for us to hold on to.

A way to navigate, gently, out from the darkness..”
