Statement about AOAP Submitted Artwork
Recently, I’ve been taking a nostalgic look back at my raving experiences of the 90s and early noughties and have been making work which echos my experiences of losing myself on dance floors in my youth. Through drawing and painting, I’m looking at those fleeting moments of altered states, those highs of human experience where we’re lost in music.
“Often those moments I’m looking to capture are those where we’re lost; in movement, in music, in a shard of light, in ourselves.”
You must not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit any works. In doing so, you endanger our relationships with artists, and directly jeopardise the charitable work we do.

THIS AUCTION HAS BEEN ORGANISED FOR CHARITY AND ALL ARTWORKS HAVE BEEN GENEROUSLY DONATED BY THE ARTISTS TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE HEPATITIS C TRUST. WHEN THE WORK PRODUCED FOR THE CHARITY IS SOLD ON THE SECONDARY MARKET IT DAMAGES OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE ARTIST AND PREVENTS US FROM FUNDRAISING.
