About The Artwork
This is the second observational study I produced of my home in Cordes-sur-Ciel, S.W. France. Dating back to the thirteenth century this iconic building forms part of the Barbacane (watchtower) building. Built on solid rock it commands far reaching views over the surrounding countryside. I wanted in this piece, to communicate something of the monolithic quality of the building as it towers above the viewer. In more recent times, this was the home of Surrealist artist Francis Meunier, who lived here for thirty years and hosted a number of famous visitors including Andre Breton and Albert Camus. I lived and worked here for two years and came to increasingly appreciate the sombre majesty of Cordes - particularly in winter.

France
Born 1955 Tottenham,London. Re-located from Norfolk to Cordes-sur-Ciel, France 2015. Now resident in Coulon, Deux Sevrés, France. Stephen Clary's artistic predilections have remained constant throughout his career - an intense appreciation of natural beauty, vibrancy of colour, a certain tautness of line. As his work has developed, so has an appreciation of the way in which the eye will travel over a subject in order for it to 'make sense'. Fragmentation, transparency, multiple viewpoints, negative space are all enlisted in his work, combining to form a harmonious and resonant ensemble. He would site a diverse range of influences - Klimt & Schiele, Cubism & Futurism, Japanese painters & stained glass makers. After a somewhat turbulent seven years in France, he is finally settled in the beautiful 'Green Venice' of the Marais Poitevin. He is joyfully engaged in exploring the possibilities, 'weaving the strands together', always looking for something beautiful. Contact phone number 0033 (0) 6 13 67 79 77
