Please Tell Me


140 x 140 cm; silk, paint, silkscreen, burn holes

Continuing with the ghost theme, Please Tell Me is based on an image I found of a spiritualist's automatic writing. It shows a frantic exchange between clairvoyant and spirit. I loved how it reveals how desperate we are for news from the "other side". It immediately made me think of our relationship with art. And if there are similarities, what this might reveal about the nature of an artwork. The screen-printed images in Please Tell Me are the start of an investigation into what for me what are ghostly moments in paintings and photos.
