n his last painting ‘Study of a bull’, 1991 it shows his fascination with bulls. The bull in western art is an ancient symbol of life and power especially in the classical world, it’s also a symbol of sacrifice. The painting feels like a mystery, unfinished but the ghost of its meaning is strikingly there. The ghost like spirit and movement of the bull, the black void in the background, the white double door forms, the circular arena platform; all teases us with the symbols that I’ve just mentioned of life, power, and sacrifice.

The opening for the ‘It’s not just black and white’ exhibition went really well. I always feel as if I could have interacted more, but I just did not want to come across as if I was approaching people as if it was some aggressive sales pitch. The exhibition was situated in an old derelict building, with a charm of decay and neglection, it was a perfect space to show artwork that made a change from displaying art in white, minimal spaces.
