WILD -REWILD-REPEAT was the title of my 2022 solo exhibition . This was one of the last pieces made for that show ,indeed that series of work which was a Romantically inspired series advocating that imagination be freely expressed.It was tied up with the Romantic movement and that movements' concern in those early days , with nature and the environment .
Thoreau, Walt Whitman , Ralph Waldo Emmerson were early exponents of the movement in America whilst here in Europe we had the poets , Byron , Shelley Longfellow et al .
