Hi Alan, It seems that people are finding certain elements in this series of work, in relation to their own perspectives, whether it involves locality (nation etc) and or psychologically. I think this is good because communicates in ways beyond my own trappings. I like letting these works present, if possible, their unforced contexts -- it comes out in the wash (for want of a better word) ;-)
Thanks for looking.
