Rack

Rack, like Equilibrium in blue, is nothing more than a series of vertical strokes scratched on a smudgy inflamed, background. It is not representational of anything in terms of a landscape or other but its essence is no doubt inspired by the striking lines of the fish traps that line the shallow coastal waters around the shores of Bahrain where I live. A particular set in an area between the end of the airport runway, a power station and rampant reclamation for new residential developments speak of more sustainable times and of a purer environment, one that's now completely lost to progress.

For me there is something in this horiztontal, parallelist theme that is speaking some kind of allegorical, ecological warning.
