The Bathtubs series began in 1998. Since then it has evolved into several plastic forms. A series of paintings in acrylic on wood, they are representations of sections though bathtubs, in several views. Each module is a view. There is no sign of handwork or lines, just a patch of colour. In keeping with the nature of the piece it should be able to form an open object – installed on the wall – or a closed object – forming part of the wall/floor, wall/ceiling. The colours vary between brilliant, satin-finish and matt. They are paintings that, with a suggestion of being abstract, are figurative objects. |
