“I believe in the future resolution of these two states, dream and reality…”
— André Breton
The Story
Sometimes an artwork waits for you. It sits quietly in the archive until the years catch up with it, and then one day it appears again, not as an old work, but as a message from the beginning.
Often I look back through my early work as a form of reflection, a way of reconsidering my practice and its evolution. When I do that, I am often surprised by what I find, or by what I once missed or dismissed at a particular moment in time.
Under the Weather is a perfect example.
I created this artwork on 23 September 2013 at 6.45am. Looking at it now, it feels like an almost perfect distillation of what I had just begun to discover then about reflections and the possibility of creating artworks from them.
What strikes me now is the balance between recognition and disorientation. We can sense the marina, the boats, the rigging, the early morning light. Yet the image refuses to settle into simple description. The world remains visible, but it has slipped into another state, somewhere between observation and dream.
That is why the title feels so right to me. Under the Weather carries its familiar meaning of feeling unsettled, out of sorts, slightly removed from certainty. But in this work it also suggests something else: being beneath the atmosphere itself, beneath the visible order of things, in a place where reality begins to bend.
There is humour in it, but also unease. The forms quiver, dissolve and reform. The reflected boats seem less like objects than passing states of mind.
Looking back now, I realise this work was showing me something important long before I fully understood it.
About the Urban Reflections Collection
Urban Reflections transforms city architecture, glass and light into abstract water reflection art. Buildings and bridges dissolve into colour, line and movement, becoming contemporary urban abstract wall art and city reflection prints. These works bring a metropolitan energy to a space while still holding the fluid, meditative quality of water.
