La Macina di San Cresci

“Artists are interesting creatures. We can be obsessive, dedicated, spirited and single minded in our pursuit for that perfect realisation of our art. We tend to be outsiders and are often that square peg in the round hole, so when you find an oasis like San Cresci you hold on tight -- for it’s that sense of belonging which welcomes you.”

I would like to extend the definition of art to include any form of representation. Medium exclusivity and ridged techniques limit the artist’s scope. In keeping with the forward thrust of Modernism, Post-Modernism, and Contemporary art, each poised to correct the mistakes and stagnancies of what came before, I want to strip my art of convention and coherency and focus simply on representing the subject through novel means. This naturally lends itself to a multimedia approach, in which I will use elements of printmaking, drawing, and painting, pulling from the strong suits of each, to construct vibrant backgrounds and forms.
