About The Artwork

A girl runs across an open space in the city carrying three packets of crisps. The houses in the distance are reminiscent of a battle scarred landscape; in this instance, the battle was one of urban development. The girl instinctively hurries past the derelict houses. A woman briskly strides along the footpath, stick in hand. In the background an elderly man trudges in the opposite direction providing tension and counterpoint to the composition. While the scene is urban and gritty, comprised mainly of muted sepia tones and greys, areas of colour offer relief, optimism and the promise of resilience. The scene is intentionally challenging to the viewer addressing issues of history, mortality and the passage of time. The vigor and urgency of youth are depicted by the girl's intensity, consumed with her treasure.
