This series of drawings and paintings was the result of a trip to Indonesia and Bali. The Hindu presence in Bali had a mesmerising effect on me. The half human, half animal artefacts stayed in my mind and came to the surface when I began this new work.
We are mostly unaffected by the daily sight of pylons, telephone masts and cables etc. For some reason, these objects took on a very different meaning for me in Indonesia. They became very sinister and threatening, all of this of course, came out in my work.
